Martina Navratilova was the defending champion, but was defeated in the fourth round by Kathy Horvath. It was her only loss for the entire year and ended a 39 match winning streak.[3]

This edition of the French Open was the first to have a 128-player main draw.

This tournament marked the first major appearance of future world No. 1 and 22-time major champion Steffi Graf. At 13 years, 11 months and 9 days of age, Graf became the youngest player to compete in the main draw of a major. This was the final major appearance for former world No. 1 and seven-time major champion Evonne Goolagong.
