Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and world number 1 Jannik Sinner will take their simmering rivalry at the top of the men’s game to Wimbledon, where the two young players will look to extend seven-time winner Novak Djokovic’s 2024 trophy drought.
But even before the tournament has started, Djokovic’s quest for his 25th Grand Slam title has already hit a snag. The Serb is building up match fitness after undergoing knee surgery three weeks ago to repair an injury that ended his Roland Garros career prematurely.
Former champion Andy Murray, 37, is also in the running to be ready for what is likely to be his Wimbledon swansong after the injury-plagued Briton underwent surgery last week to treat a back problem that worsened during his performance at the Queen’s Club.
