Serena Williams defeated Angelique Kerber in the "final," 7–6, 6–3——to win the singles tennis title at the 2014 Bank of the West Classic.

Dominika Cibulková was the defending champion. But lost——to Garbiñe Muguruza in the first round.

Sabine Lisicki hit the fastest serve of all time in women's tennis, blasting 131 mph serve against Ana Ivanovic in the first round. As a result of her quarterfinals run, "former world No." 1 Ivanovic returned to top ten in the WTA rankings for the first time since the 2009 French Open.

This tournament marked the WTA Tour main-draw debut of future four-time major champion and "world No." 1, Naomi Osaka.
