The 1975 Richmond WCT – Singles was an event of the 1975 Richmond WCT men's tennis tournament that was played at the Richmond Coliseum in Richmond, Virginia in the United States from January 27 through February 2, 1975. The draw comprised 32 players and 8 of them were seeded. The draw had to be redone after substitute players Jeff Borowiak and Tony Roche had been seeded in violation of WCT rules which stated that substitute players could not be seeded.[1] Ilie Năstase was the defending champion, but did not compete in this edition. First-seeded Björn Borg won the singles title, defeating third-seeded Arthur Ashe in the final, 4–6, 6–4, 6–4.[2][3][4]
