This paper highlights results from electroweak measurements recently obtained by the CDF and D0 collaborations in 1.8 TeV p{ovr p} collisions. The W decay width was extracted from the measurement of W/Z cross section times leptonic branching ratios, and in a direct measurement from a fit of the high-mass tail of the transverse mass spectrum of the W system. Various limits on anomalous gauge boson couplings were obtained in studies of W/Z + {gamma} processes, single leptonic WW, WZ production and double leptonic WW production. Values for {sigma}B(W{gamma}{r_arrow}l{nu}{gamma}), {sigma}B(Z{gamma}{r_arrow}l{sup +}l{sup -}{gamma}), and {sigma}(p{ovr p}{r_arrow}WW + X) were measured. CDF also reports on the observation of an asymmetry in photon rapidity distributions as predicted by the Standard Model. 17 refs., 2 figs., 1 tab.
