The 1984 Lipton WTA Championships was a women's tennis tournament played on outdoor clay courts at the Amelia Island Plantation in Amelia Island in the United States that was part of the 1984 Virginia Slims World Championship Series. It was the 5th edition of the tournament and was held from April 16 through April 22, 1984. First-seeded Martina Navratilova won the singles title and earned $32,000 first-prize money. It was Navratilova's 10th straight win against Evert-Lloyd but her first on clay after seven prior defeats on that surface. The loss broke Evert-Lloyd's 84 match win streak on Florida clay courts.[1][2]
