2013 Wimbledon Championships – Women's Singles

2007 finalist Marion Bartoli defeated Sabine Lisicki in the final, 6–1, 6–4 to win the Ladies' Singles tennis title at the 2013 Wimbledon Championships without dropping a set, or facing a tiebreak in any set. Bartoli became the first French Grand Slam champion since Amélie Mauresmo at the 2006 Wimbledon Championships.[1] By winning a Grand Slam title in her 47th appearance, she broke the previous women's record of 45, set by Jana Novotná in 1998, for most appearances in a Grand Slam tournament before winning.[2] This was later broken again by Flavia Pennetta, who won the 2015 US Open on her 49th Grand Slam appearance.[3]

Serena Williams was the defending champion, but lost to Sabine Lisicki in the fourth round, ending a 34-match winning streak dating back to the Miami Open. This was the fourth time in a row that Lisicki had defeated the reigning French Open champion at Wimbledon, comprising wins over Svetlana Kuznetsova in 2009, Li Na in 2011, Maria Sharapova in 2012, and Williams in 2013 (Lisicki did not play Wimbledon in 2010).

The exits of Li Na and Petra Kvitová in the quarterfinals ensured that the eventual tournament victor would be a first-time Grand Slam winner.[4] Lisicki was the first German finalist of either sex in a Grand Slam since Rainer Schüttler at the 2003 Australian Open, while Bartoli was the first French female player to appear in a major final since her own 2007 Wimbledon final. The final marked the second time in the Open era after 1998 that neither Wimbledon finalist was a former Grand Slam champion.
