Roger Federer defeated Marin Čilić in the final, 6–3, 6–1, 6–4 to win the gentlemen's singles title at the 2017 Wimbledon Championships. It was his record eighth Wimbledon men's singles title (surpassing Pete Sampras and William Renshaw's all-time record) and record-extending 19th major title overall. Federer did not lose a set during the tournament, the second man to do so at Wimbledon in the Open Era after Björn Borg in 1976. It was his record-equaling 70th appearance at a men's singles major, and a record eleventh men's singles final at the same major. With his third-round win over Mischa Zverev, Federer won his Open Era record 317th major singles match. With his first-round win, Federer surpassed Jimmy Connors' record for the most match wins at Wimbledon. In the same match, he hit his 10,000th career ace, only the third man to do so. This tournament marked the fifth season where Rafael Nadal won the French Open and Federer won Wimbledon.
Andy Murray was the defending champion and top seed, but was defeated by Sam Querrey in the quarterfinals – the second consecutive year in which Querrey beat the defending champion and world No. 1 at Wimbledon, after beating Novak Djokovic in the third round the previous year. Murray nonetheless retained the world No. 1 singles ranking, as Nadal, Stan Wawrinka, and Djokovic failed to gain enough ranking points to surpass him. Wawrinka was attempting to complete the career Grand Slam, but lost to future world No. 1 Daniil Medvedev in the first round. It was Medvedev's first victory in the main draw of a major.
This was the first major since the 2009 French Open in which Murray, Nadal and Djokovic all failed to reach the semifinals, and the first time since 2004 that no player reached all four major quarterfinals in a year. Querrey was the first American man to reach a major semifinal since Andy Roddick at the 2009 Wimbledon Championships.
For the first time since the 2005 Australian Open, David Ferrer was unseeded at a major. This marked the last major appearance of former world No. 2 Tommy Haas; he lost in the first round to Ruben Bemelmans.
