Main article: 2021 Wimbledon Championships

Djokovic became the first man to win the Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon titles in the same calendar year since Rod Laver in 1969 and the first to achieve the Surface Slam (winning majors on three different surfaces in a calendar year) since Nadal in 2010. He also became the fifth man in the Open Era to win the Channel Slam (French Open—Wimbledon double).[3][4][5]

Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev were in contention for the world No. 1 singles ranking; Djokovic retained the top ranking when Medvedev lost in the fourth round.

This event marked the final professional singles appearance of 20-time major champion and former world No. 1 Roger Federer; he lost in the quarterfinals to Hubert Hurkacz. Federer became the oldest man to reach the Wimbledon quarterfinals in the Open Era, and the oldest man to reach a major quarterfinal since Ken Rosewall in January 1977.[6] By winning his fourth-round match he completed 105 wins at Wimbledon. The 18 quarterfinals and 119 matches he has contested at Wimbledon are both tournament records.[7][8] In the quarterfinals, Federer lost in straight sets at Wimbledon for the first time since 2002.

Berrettini became the first Italian man to reach a major final since Adriano Panatta at the 1976 French Open and the first to do so at Wimbledon.[9] Zhang Zhizhen became the first Chinese man to qualify for the Wimbledon main draw in the Open Era.[10][11] Márton Fucsovics became the first Hungarian to reach a men's singles major quarterfinal since Balázs Taróczy at the 1981 French Open and the first to do so at Wimbledon since József Asbóth in 1948.[12] It was the first time since 2017 that two-time champion Andy Murray participated.[13] For the first time since 2002, the grass court seeding formula was abandoned and the standard ranking system based on the ATP rankings was permanently adopted, like at the other three majors.[14][15]
