Seven-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic and defending champion Jannik Sinner find themselves in the same half of the men’s singles draw for Wimbledon 2026. Djokovic, aiming for an eighth Wimbledon title, will kick off against China’s Wu Yibing and could potentially face tough opponents like Stefanos Tsitsipas and Hugo Gaston in the early rounds.
On the other hand, defending champion Jannik Sinner will start his campaign against Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic and might encounter Nuno Borges or Tristan Boyer in the second round. The Italian’s path could lead to a challenging clash with Spaniard Rafael Jodar or fellow Italian Luciano Darderi in the fourth round.
A potential blockbuster semifinal between Sinner and Djokovic looms if both players progress, with Daniil Medvedev expected to be a tough quarterfinal opponent for the Russian. In the women’s draw, Serena Williams is set to make her Grand Slam singles return, starting against Australia’s Maya Jantchene, with a possible showdown against defending champion Iga Swiatek in the third round.
In the women’s quarter-finals projection, matchups include Sabalenka vs Andreeva, Pegula vs Gauff, Swiatek vs Elina Svitolina, and Rybakina vs Amanda Anisimova. The Wimbledon draw also features players like Emma Raducanu, Naomi Osaka, Coco Gauff, and others, promising an exciting tournament ahead.
