LONDON : Daniil Medvedev may be banned from Wimbledon but the world number one was still swinging on grass as he swapped his tennis racket for a golf club on Monday and a game against former Germany midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Novak Djokovic begins his bid to match Pete Sampras as a seven-time Wimbledon champion on Monday, with British Grand Slam title winners Andy Murray and Emma Raducanu also on Centre Court's opening day agenda. In the absence of the banned Daniil Medvedev and injured Alexander Zverev, 20-time major winner Djokovic takes top seeding. The 35-year-old defending champion starts his title bid against South Korea's Kwon Soon-woo, the world number 81. Djokovic has extra motivation this year as Wimbledon will be his last Slam of 2022.
LONDON : The world's most famous queue began streaming into the All England Club on Monday as the gates opened at the start of the 135th edition of the Wimbledon championships.
Daniil Medvedev appears to be in good spirits despite being banned from Wimbledon. The All England Club barred all players from Russia and Belarus in response to the war in Ukraine, meaning the world No 1 has been left unable to compete, but has been spending time on the grass with former Manchester United star Bastian Schweinsteiger instead.
The All England Club's (AELTC) chairman Ian Hewitt was left «very disappointed» by the ATP and WTA's decision to strip Wimbledon of ranking points but added the championships were left with «no other viable» alternative than banning players from Russia and Belarus from competing this year.
Wimbledon chief executive Sally Bolton said Monday she was relieved the world's top stars had showed up at the Grand Slam even though no ranking points will be on offer.
