Ivan Lendl was the defending champion, and regained his title by defeating Mats Wilander 6–2, 6–2, 6–3 in the final. In this year the semifinal pairings were decided by a racket spin which resulted in the two first placed players of each group having to play each other again, in the case of Stefan Edberg and Mats Wilander for the second time within just 24 hours (Edberg won the round robin match easily but Wilander won the semifinal in three sets).
