Wimbledon, one of tennis’ most prestigious tournaments, will commence on Monday, featuring renowned players such as Novak Djokovic, Iga Swiatek, Venus Williams, and Coco Gauff. Djokovic, who emerged victorious at both the Australian Open and the French Open earlier this year, is aiming for a historic calendar-year Grand Slam in men’s tennis, a feat that has not been achieved since 1969. With four consecutive titles at the All England Club and a total of eight overall, Djokovic aims to equal impressive records for men in both categories. Additionally, his recent win at Roland Garros secured his 23rd Slam event title, surpassing Rafael Nadal’s record. As the reigning men’s champion, Djokovic is scheduled to play the first match at Centre Court on Day 1 against Pedro Cachin of Argentina. Following him at the main stadium, Williams, a 43-year-old veteran of the sport, will face Elina Svitolina of Ukraine in her 24th appearance at the tournament. Williams, who has won five of her seven Grand Slam singles trophies at Wimbledon, continues to compete despite her sister Serena’s retirement. Swiatek, the current world No. 1, with four major titles under her belt, will kick off proceedings at No. 1 Court against Zhu Lin of China. The subsequent matches in this arena will feature Casper Ruud, a three-time Grand Slam runner-up, facing Laurent Lokoli, and Gauff, a promising 19-year-old American and previous French Open finalist, taking on Sofia Kenin, the 2020 Australian Open champion.
