1973 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles

Jan Kodeš defeated Alex Metreveli in the final, 6–1, 9–8^(7–5), 6–3 to win the gentlemen's singles tennis title at the 1973 Wimbledon Championships. It was his first Wimbledon title and third and last major singles title overall. The final included a tie-break played at 8–8 in the second set; it was the first ever Wimbledon singles final to feature a tie-break.

81 of the top Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) players, including reigning champion Stan Smith, boycotted Wimbledon in 1973 in protest against the suspension of Nikola Pilić by the Yugoslav Tennis Association, supported by the International Lawn Tennis Federation (ILTF). This resulted in numerous qualifiers and lucky losers playing the tournament; of the 16 players originally seeded at the tournament, only three (Ilie Năstase, Kodeš, and Roger Taylor) participated.
