The Wimbledon Ladies’ Singles was first introduced in 1884 and there have been 125 editions of the tournament since.

During that time we’ve seen a plethora of iconic winners, some of which dominated the competition for decades.

With this in mind, here are the top 10 female Wimbledon stars from the Open Era:

Margaret Court

Court still holds the record for most Grand Slam titles won with 24 –– three of which came at Wimbledon.

Her last triumph came in 1970, where she defeated Billie Jean King to become the first woman to complete the Career Grand Slam in the Open Era.

Court was far more of a hard-court specialist, but will still go down as one of the finest female players to ever grace the All England Club.
