Justine Henin defeated Svetlana Kuznetsova in the final, 6–1, 6–3 to win the women's singles tennis title at the 2007 US Open. She did not lose a set during the tournament. It was her second US Open, her seventh and last major title and final US Open appearance.

Maria Sharapova was the defending champion, but was defeated by Agnieszka Radwańska in the third round.

This was the final major singles appearance of former world No. 1 and five-time major singles champion Martina Hingis, who retired in November 2007 (she would later return to the sport in doubles and mixed doubles starting in 2013). She was beaten in the third round by Victoria Azarenka. It was also the first US Open main draw appearance for future world No. 1 and Australian Open champion Caroline Wozniacki, who lost in the second round to Alizé Cornet.
