This Wimbledon will be headlined by some of the biggest tennis stars of this generation.
Eyes will be on Carlos Alcaraz, who secured his maiden Wimbledon singles title by defeating seven-time champion Novak Djokovic last year. The veteran tennis star will be back in action this year with the hope of adding another silverware to his decorated cabinet. Djokovic hasn’t played any game since sustaining a knee injury in the fourth round of the French Open.
In the women’s category, unseeded scripted history by triumphing over Ons Jabeur in the singles final to claim the prized accolade. This time, the world no. 1 Iga Swiatek will be desperate to achieve success on the grass court and take home her first-ever Wimbledon title. The four-time French Open winner was eliminated from the quarter-finals in the last edition.
From India, the best men’s player Sumit Nagal is set to make his debut in the Wimbledon main event this year. He will face off against world No. 53 Miomir Kecmanovic in the first round. Meanwhile, in men’s doubles, veteran star Rohan Bopanna will pair with Australia’s Matthew Ebden. The defending Australian Open champions played the Wimbledon semi-final last season. Another Indian star, N Sriram Balaji will also feature in the men’s doubles with Great Britain’s Luke Johnson.
