Pete Sampras was the two-time defending champion and he defeated Andre Agassi in the final, 6–3, 6–4, 7–5 to win the Gentlemen's Singles tennis title at the 1999 Wimbledon Championships. With this win, his sixth at Wimbledon, Sampras broke Björn Borg's then open era record of five Wimbledon titles, and equalled Roy Emerson's then record of twelve Grand Slam titles. Sampras's victory over Agassi in the final is often cited as one of the greatest performances in a Wimbledon final. However, despite his victory, Sampras lost his No. 1 ranking when the ATP rankings were updated a day later to Agassi, who in addition to his run to the Wimbledon Final, had recently won the 1999 French Open.

Dominic Thiem won his first Grand Slam title, defeating Alexander Zverev in the final, 2–6, 4–6, 6–4, 6–3, 7–6(8–6). Thiem became the first player in the Open Era to win from two sets down in a US Open final and the first at any major event since Gastón Gaudio defeated Guillermo Coria in the 2004 French Open final. This was the first time in history that the US Open final was decided by a fifth set tie-break. Thiem's victory made him the first Austrian player to win a Grand Slam singles title since Thomas Muster at the 1995 French Open, the first male player born in the 1990s to win a Grand Slam singles title, and the first new Grand Slam tournament singles champion since Marin Čilić won the 2014 tournament. This was also the first time in history that 4 consecutive Grand Slam finals were decided in the fifth set. The gap between Čilić and Thiem's titles was the longest between 2 new Grand Slam champions in the history of men's tennis, surpassing the previous longest gap between Juan Martín del Potro and Andy Murray respectively at the 2009 and 2012 editions of the US Open. Coincidentally, all 4 players would win their respective titles at the same major and, by virtue of Thiem doing so, somebody born after the 1980s had now won a men's singles Grand Slam tournament.
