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 favorite Serena Williams, a three-time US Open champion and the 28th seed, 6–2, 6–3 in the final. She became the first Australian woman to win any Grand Slam tournament since Evonne Goolagong Cawley in 1980.
