Wimbledon order of play and Monday’s schedule
Emma Raducanu returns to Wimbledon as defending men’s champion Carlos Alcaraz opens play on the first day of the Championships on Monday.
Raducanu missed last year’s Wimbledon after undergoing surgery on both wrists and an ankle but has shown glimpses of form this grass-court season, including the first top-10 win of her career against Jessica Pegula at Eastbourne.
The former US Open champion has taken a wildcard ahead of her first Wimbledon match in two years and was due to meet Russian 22nd seed Ekaterina Alexandrova in the first round. However, Alexandrova has pulled out injured at the last minute and Raducanu will now face lucky loser, world No 98 Renata Zarazua from Mexico instead.
Elsewhere, Alcaraz will open play on Centre Court against qualifier Mark Lajal, the World 262. Alcaraz defeated Novak Djokovic to win his first Wimbledon title last year and has since added a third grand slam of his career at the French Open last month.
Jannik Sinner, Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka are among the other stars involved on the first Monday of the tournament, while British wildcard Charles Broom has landed a big-name opponent against three-time grand slam champion Stan Wawrinka.
