The match between Virginie Buisson and Noëlle van Lottum was the longest women's match at a major, spanning 4 hours and 7 minutes. This record would later be broken by Barbora Záhlavová-Strýcová and Regina Kulikova in the 2010 Australian Open.

The tournament marked the first major appearance of future world No. 1 and two-time major champion Amélie Mauresmo.
