LONDON : Andy Murray knows his way around the All England Club better than any player in Friday's Wimbledon draw and while his career highlights may be behind him there will be plenty of seeds hoping to avoid the British favourite.
Eurosport tennis expert and seven-time Grand Slam winner Mats Wilander believes that Serbian superstar Novak Djokovic is the “big favourite” for Wimbledon, adding that Carlos Alcaraz might have finally figured out how to play on grass. Djokovic, the 2023 Australian and French Open champion, is looking to secure the calendar Grand Slam for the first time in his career and comes into Wimbledon as the heavy favourite for the men’s singles title. Ad And speaking exclusively to Eurosport before the tournament started, Wilander said it is very hard to bet against Djokovic at the moment.
Andy Murray admits he would prefer not to face a top seed in the opening rounds of Wimbledon after he lost to Holger Rune in straight sets in an exhibition match at the Hurlingham Tennis Classic. Two-time winner Murray, 36, has been tipped to cause an upset at Wimbledon despite crashing out in the first round at Queen’s to eventual finalist Alex De Minaur. Ad His preparations continued on Wednesday as he fell to a 6-4 6-4 loss to world No.
Eurosport expert Mats Wilander believes Andy Murray can cause surprises at Wimbledon and insists the two-time champion can play for at least four more years. The 36-year-old may have fallen down the rankings over the years, but a recent run of 10 consecutive wins as he lifted titles in Surbiton and Nottingham shows there is still fire in his belly. Ad Murray won two of his three Grand Slams at Wimbledon and Wilander insists the Scot can turn back the clock and ‘upset people’ in this year’s tournament — even if a first-round Queen's defeat to Alex De Minaur all but ended his hopes of being seeded.
The seedings for Wimbledon have been released, but has Andy Murray been given one ahead of the tournament he has won twice in his career? Murray has enjoyed a mixed start to his grass court campaign in 2023. He won back-to-back challenger titles at Surbiton and Nottingham which saw him rise up to No. 38 in the ATP rankings.
If Wimbledon was once ruled by Roger Federer, nowadays it is very much Novak Djokovic’s domain. Djokovic has won the last four editions of Wimbledon and hasn’t lost a match on the grass courts of SW19 since 2017. If he lifts the trophy again this summer he will equal Federer’s record of eight titles, move level with Margaret Court at the top of the all-time Grand Slam standings on 24, and will also complete three quarters of the 2023 Calendar Slam.
By James Reid at Queen's NEW world No.1 Carlos Alcaraz insisted Novak Djokovic is still the red-hot Wimbledon favourite in the wake of his own maiden grass court title at Queen's. Ad Alcaraz beat Alex de Minaur 6-4 6-4 to cap a remarkable week for the Spaniard that has seen his game on this surface take visible leaps forward.

Gordon Reid and Alfie Hewett geared up for Wimbledon in perfect style as they claimed the wheelchair doubles title at the 2023 cinch Championships.
