Wimbledon 2023: Full schedule, seedings, match times, tickets, prize money and TV channel
ne of the most-anticipated fortnights in the sporting calendar is almost here, as all eyes in the tennis world and beyond turn to Wimbledon.
Defending champion Novak Djokovic is unsurprisingly the big favourite on the men’s side of the draw. The Serbian is well on course for the calendar Grand Slam after coming out on top in Melbourne and Paris so far this year, and will move alongside Roger Federer with eight Wimbledon titles should he enjoy yet more success at SW19.
It’s Carlos Alcaraz who arrives as world number one and top seed though, while last year’s runner-up Nick Kyrgios arrives with concerns over his fitness and Andy Murray looks to bring his form on the Challenger Tour to the biggest stage.
Iga Swiatek sits at the top of the women’s rankings, though still has something to prove on grass. The 22-year-old, now a four-time Grand Slam champion, is yet to make it beyond the fourth round at Wimbledon and pulled out of the Bad Homburg Open on Friday due to illness.
Elena Rybakina returns 12 months on looking to defend her crown, though she too has been battling illness, so it could be Aryna Sabalenka, who reached the last-four at Wimbledon in her last appearance in 2021, who arrives in London with most confidence.
Date, start time and venue
Wimbledon starts on Monday, July 3, 2022, and will once again run for 14 consecutive days due to play taking place on Middle Sunday.
The action at SW19 will come to a close on Sunday, July 16.
