Women's singles at the Australian Open 2017 .

The defending champion and number 1 in the world rankings , Angelique Kerber , was eliminated in the second round against Coco Vandeweghe (35th in the world rankings). With Vandeweghe and the Williams sisters, for the first time since 2002, there were three US women in the semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament. Venus Williams reached the semi-finals of the Australian Open for the first time in 14 years and is the oldest Melbourne semi-finalist at 36 years and 216 days. Mirjana Lučić-Baroni was in the semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament for the first time since 1999.

For the eighth time in a Grand Slam final there was a sister act between the Williams sisters, and Serena won six of these duels . Already in 2003 , the sisters met in the final of the Australian Open on each other, then Serena was victorious. After one hour and 22 minutes, Serena Williams won the final and was the sole record holder of the Open Era with 23 Grand Slam titles, ahead of Steffi Graf (22 titles). With her victory, Serena Williams returned to the top of the world rankings. At 35 years and 125 days, she became the oldest major winner in history to date. Measured by the combined age of the two Williams sisters, the women's final in Melbourne Park was the “oldest” final in the Open Era (since 1968).
