Who was the winner of the women's singles at Wimbledon in 2016? Serena Williams was the winner.

Williams defeated Germany's Angelique Kerber in the final, winning 7–5, 6–3 on Wimbledon's grass courts. The victory gave her a seventh Wimbledon singles championship and confirmed her continued dominance at one of tennis's most prestigious tournaments.

The final was especially significant because Williams and Kerber had already met in the 2016 Australian Open final, where Kerber won. At Wimbledon, Williams controlled the rematch more effectively, taking the title without dropping a set in the final.

The championship was also a major milestone in Williams's career. It was her 22nd Grand Slam singles title, tying Steffi Graf's Open Era record at the time. Serena's sister Venus reached the semifinals, while Elena Vesnina was the other semifinalist. The women's event is sometimes called the ladies' singles championship in official Wimbledon terminology.
