Two-time defending champion Steffi Graf defeated Jana Novotná in the final, 7–6(8–6), 1–6, 6–4 to win the ladies' singles tennis title at the 1993 Wimbledon Championships.[1] It was her fifth Wimbledon singles title and 13th major title overall. Down 1–4 in the final set, Graf won the next five games to win the title; Novotná's devastation at the loss during the trophy ceremony became an iconic image of the Wimbledon Championships.[2]
