Novak Djokovic and Emma Raducanu have received their Wimbledon draw for the upcoming tournament. The third Grand Slam of the year will see them competing against other top tennis players at SW19. Djokovic aims for his 25th major championship and eighth Wimbledon title to end a three-year Grand Slam victory drought. Raducanu seeks her second major title after her 2021 US Open win.
Although Raducanu has never advanced past the fourth round at Wimbledon, she hopes to change that this year. Both players face tough competition, with defending champions Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek also in the mix.
Raducanu’s first-round opponent is Croatian Antonia Ruzic, while Serena Williams will face Australia’s Maya Joint. Williams, a 23-time Grand Slam champion, aims for an eighth Wimbledon title against the 20-year-old Joint, ranked world No. 53.
In the men’s singles, Djokovic will play against Yibing Wu, a world No. 99 who has not gone beyond the first round previously. Defending champion Sinner will face Miomir Kecmanovic as he vies for a second title at the event.
The Wimbledon draw was announced at 10 am, providing an exciting lineup of matches for the tournament.
