Mary Pierce was the reigning champion, but did not compete due to a back injury.[3]

This marked the first major in which future major champion Marion Bartoli competed in the main draw.[4] It also marked the French Open debut of 2010 champion Francesca Schiavone, who reached the quarterfinals, her best result at the tournament until her title run nine years later.[5]

This was the last major to feature only 16 seeds.
