2017 French Open – Women's Singles

Jeļena Ostapenko defeated Simona Halep in the final, 4–6, 6–4, 6–3 to win the Women's Singles tennis title at the 2017 French Open.[1][2] This was Ostapenko's first WTA Tour-level singles title. She became the first Latvian player, male or female, to win a Grand Slam singles tournament, the youngest woman to win the French Open since 1997,[3][4] and the first woman since Barbara Jordan at the 1979 Australian Open to win a Grand Slam event as her first tour-level singles title.[4] Ostapenko was the first unseeded woman to win the French Open since 1933, as well as the lowest-ranked (47) since computer rankings began in 1975.[5][6]

Garbiñe Muguruza was the defending champion, having won the tournament in 2016, but she was defeated in the fourth round by Kristina Mladenovic.[7]

It was the first time at the French Open since 1977, and any Grand Slam event since the 1979 Australian Open that no former Grand Slam champion reached the quarterfinals.[8]

As a result of Halep's loss in the final, Angelique Kerber retained the WTA no. 1 singles ranking even though she lost in the first round. Kerber's loss marked the first time the top women's seed had lost her first round match at the French Open in the Open Era, and the first time this had happened at any Grand Slam tournament since the 2001 Wimbledon Championships.[9][10]

This was the first French Open since 2011 to feature neither Maria Sharapova nor Serena Williams in the final. This was the first Grand Slam tournament to feature neither player since the 2002 Australian Open.
