Kim Clijsters was the two-time defending champion, but withdrew due to an abdominal injury.

Ninth seed Samantha Stosur won her first Grand Slam championship, defeating the favourite Serena Williams, a three-time US Open champion and the 28th seed, 6–2, 6–3 in the final. Stosur became the first Australian woman to win the US Open since Margaret Court in 1973,[1] and the first Australian woman to win any Grand Slam tournament since Evonne Goolagong Cawley in 1980.
