Back in the time of Covid After being cancelled last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Wimbledon makes a welcome return this year.

The Championships 2021 is the first Grand Slam tournament to have full spectator capacity for the Men’s and Women’s final since the pandemic broke. And although ticket holders will be required to follow strict entry requirements, the return of spectators to a once-again

packed Centre Court means that the real crowd sounds, excitement and competitive atmosphere are back for TV viewers, too.

Spectators will be required to wear face coverings while moving around the grounds, but not when seated while at the venue. The tournament will begin with 50% capacity across the grounds, and for Centre Court and No 1 Court. The smaller Show Courts will open at 75% capacity.

Ticket allocations for Centre and No 1 Courts will then be increased for the Fourth Round and Quarter-Finals, building up to 100% spectator capacity on Centre Court for the Semi-Finals and Finals.

leading contenders – men NOVAK DJOKOVIC

DANIIL MEDVEDEV

STEFANOS TSITSIPAS

Born in Serbia in 1987, Novak Djokovic began playing tennis at the age of four and was sent to train in Germany when he was 13. After a steady ascent to the top levels of the sport, he won the Australian Open in 2008 and led the Serbian national team to its first Davis Cup win in 2010. In 2011, he won three of the four Grand Slams and compiled a 43-match winning streak en route to claiming the world’s No 1 ranking for the first time.

He again occupies the world top spot and is the defending Wimbledon champion, looking for a sixth title. He has already taken two grand slam titles this year – the Australian Open and the French Open, where he came from two sets down to overhaul Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas in the five-set final. The win brought him his 19th Major title and saw him become the first man in Open Era history to achieve a double career Grand Slam.

Daniil Medvedev is currently the world number 2 – a careerhigh singles ranking first achieved in March this year. The 25-year-old Russian won his first ATP singles match in 2016. In the next year, he participated in a Grand Slam for the first time at Wimbledon, where he defeated world No 3, Stan Wawrinka, but lost in the next round. While he won his first ATP titles in 2018, he achieved a breakthrough in 2019, making his top 10 debut at Wimbledon and reaching six consecutive tournament finals, including the US Open final.

To date, he has won 10 ATP Tour singles titles, including the 2020 ATP Finals where he defeated Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Dominic Thiem. With the win, Medvedev became the first and only player to defeat the top three ranked players in the world en route to the title. He advanced to his second Grand Slam final at the 2021 Australian Open, where he lost to Novak Djokovic.

Nicknamed “Stef”, Stefanos Tsitsipas is the youngest player ranked in the ATP Top 10. He is known for his aggressive baseline play with powerful ground strokes, and his signature shot is a flourishing one-handed backhand. Raised in a tennis-playing family, he turned professional in 2013 and became the world No 1 junior on May 23, 2016. He is the first Greek player to break into the top 5, win an ATP Tour title, reach an ATP Masters 1000 final, and advance to a Grand Slam semi-final, which he has now done three times. He has won seven ATP Tour titles and is currently at a career-high ranking of world No 4.

His best Grand Slam performance came earlier this year at the French Open, where he led Novak Djokovic by two sets to love in the final - only to lose the final three sets as he buckled under the pressure of playing in the biggest match of his career.

leading contenders – men ALEXANDER ZVEREV

ANDREY RUBLEV

ROGER FEDERER

MATTEO BERRETTINI

Former junior world No 1, Alexander Zverev achieved a career-high No 3 ranking as a 20-year-old in 2017. He claimed the biggest of his 15 career titles at the 2018 Nitto ATP Finals, defeating both Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic on the way.

He reached his first Grand Slam semifinal at the 2020 Australian Open, and his first Grand Slam final later that year at the 2020 US Open. He then beat Rafael Nadal en route to his fourth ATP Masters 1000 title at the 2021 Madrid Open, before reaching his second Grand Slam semifinal at this year’s French Open.

With his monster serve and power from the baseline, pundits believe that he is a match for anyone talent-wise – and the 24-yearold German seems to be finally making an impact on the big stage. While he has not done particularly well at Wimbledon in the past, his newfound confidence at the highest level could see him challenge this time around.

Nicknamed “Rubl” (the Russian word for ruble and a play on his surname), Andrey Rublev broke into the ATP Top 20 in January 2020, and then into the Top 10 in October.

He has won eight ATP singles titles, and reached a career-high singles ranking of No 7 in April this year. He won his first of two doubles titles at the 2015 Kremlin Cup with Dmitry Tursunov, and among his singles titles are home victories in Moscow and St Petersburg.

Rublev has achieved 10 victories over top 10 players including Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Dominic Thiem and Stefanos Tsitsipas. He has reached the quarterfinals of the Australian, French and US Opens, and the semi-finals of the Davis Cup with Russia. An offensive baseliner with a big forehand – his favourite shot – he also has a dangerous and consistent two-handed backhand. His running forehand is particularly lethal because of his consistency and comfort with the shot.

Nicknamed the “Maestro” for his elegant and seemingly effortless strokes, Roger Federer is considered by many to be one of the greatest tennis players of all time. He is currently ranked eighth in the world, and enters this year’s tournament in the hunt for his ninth Wimbledon trophy and his 21st Grand Slam title. The Swiss master is probably returning to The Championships this year with more than a touch of regret at how things ended for him in 2019, when he squandered two match points in a marathon final against Novak Djokovic. But the 39-year-old, who has since undergone knee surgery, called time on his 2021 French Open campaign at the fourth round stage in order to protect himself and get ready for another go at a ninth Wimbledon title. How his fitness stands up following his injury remains to be seen, but the Wimbledon Centre Court is likely to be a happy hunting ground once again for a well-rested Federer.

Matteo Berrettini has a career-high ATP singles ranking of world No 8, which he achieved in November 2019. Despite currently being ranked one place lower, he has produced his best ever results in recent months. At this year’s Australian Open he reached the fourth round, and then won his first singles title in more than a year at the Serbia Open, advancing to his first Masters 1000 final at the Madrid Open. His performance at the French Open, resulted in him becoming the first Italian male tennis player to have made the fourth round at every Grand Slam tournament and when Roger Federer withdrew ahead of their fourth-round match in Paris, Berrettini progressed to his second Grand Slam quarterfinal. His victory at the Queen’s Club Championships in England earlier this month was the biggest of his career and his first on the ATP 500 level, earning him the distinction of being the first debutant to triumph at Queen’s since Boris Becker in 1985 and the first Italian in history to win the title.

leading contenders – women ASHLEIGH BARTY

ARYNA SABALENKA

ELINA SVITOLINA

With the best slice backhand in the business, Australian Ashleigh Barty is ranked No 1 in the world in singles by the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) and is the second Australian singles No 1 after fellow countrywoman, Evonne Goolagong Cawley.

She has also been a top 10 player in doubles, having achieved a career-high ranking of No 5 in the world.

She has 11 singles titles and 11 doubles titles on the WTA Tour, including one Grand Slam singles title at the 2019 French Open and one Grand Slam doubles title at the 2018 US Open with partner Coco Vandeweghe. She is also the reigning champion in singles at the WTA Finals. Despite her short stature, she is an excellent server and has made no secret of the fact that her favourite surface is grass. The 25-year-old has been in brilliant form this season, but goes into Wimbledon with doubts over a hip injury that struck at Roland Garros.

Aryna Sabalenka has been a top 10 player in both singles and doubles, having been ranked as high as No 4 in singles and No 1 in doubles.

She has won two Grand Slam doubles titles, the 2019 US Open and the 2021 Australian Open, alongside Elise Mertens. She has won 16 WTA titles in total, ten in singles and six in doubles.

Sabalenka was unheralded as a junior and relatively unknown until 2017 when she rose to prominence by leading the Belarus Fed Cup team to a runner-up finish.

While the hard-hitting Belarussian has been hovering in and out of the Top 10 since 2019, she has never cracked the quarterfinal barrier in singles at a major.

However, she showed that she has the potential to reach the final eight at a Grand Slam by upsetting world No 1 Ashleigh Barty to win the biggest title of her career - the Mutua Madrid Open.

Elina Svitolina turned professional in 2010 and reached the career-high ranking of world No 3 in September 2019. She has won 15 WTA singles titles, including the 2018 WTA Finals and three of five Premier 5-level tournaments in 2017: the Dubai Tennis Championships, the Italian Open, and the Canadian Open. At the 2015 French Open, she reached her first Grand Slam quarterfinal, where she was defeated by former champion Ana Ivanovic. In February 2017, after winning the title in Dubai, Svitolina became the first Ukrainian woman to break into the Top-10 rankings. She would finally reach her first Grand Slam semifinal at the 2019 Wimbledon Championships and followed it up with a second consecutive semifinal at the 2019 US Open.

A defensive baseliner, she possesses a remarkably complete game. Her greatest strengths are her movement, footwork, speed, stamina and anticipation, aiming to return as many balls as possible and draw unforced errors out of aggressive players.

Her favourite surfaces are grass and clay.

leading contenders – women SOFIA KENIN

BIANCA ANDREESCU

SERENA WILLIAMS

IGA SWIATEK

Nicknamed “Sonya”, Sofia Kenin has a career-high WTA ranking of No 4 in the world and is the top-ranked American in women’s singles.

She is the reigning WTA Player of the Year, an award she earned by winning the 2020 Australian Open (her first and only Grand Slam title so far) and finishing runner-up to Iga Swiatek at the 2020 French Open.

She has won five WTA singles titles in total.

She has also won two WTA doubles titles, including the 2019 China Open at the Premier Mandatory level with Bethanie Mattek-Sands.

Kenin’s style of play centres on using a wide variety of shots to disrupt her opponents. Having been more passive as a junior, she developed into a more aggressive player as a professional, while also improving her consistency – skills that laid the foundation for her rise into the upper echelon of women’s tennis. She has also been recognised for her mental toughness and persistent determination.

Bianca Andreescu has a career-high ranking of No 4 in the world, and is the highest-ranked Canadian in the history of the WTA. She began playing tennis in her parents’ home country of Romania, before returning to Canada, the country of her birth. After not playing any matches at the WTA Tour level in 2018, she had a breakout year in 2019 – winning both the US Open and the Canadian Open, defeating Serena Williams on both occasions.

She is the first Canadian tennis player to win a Grand Slam singles title, and the first to win the Canadian Open in 50 years. She is also the first player to win a Grand Slam singles title as a teenager since Maria Sharapova in 2004.

Her style of play combines power with variety, and she is been widely regarded as “fun to watch” by tennis fans, commentators and journalists.

She has strong support from both Canadian and Romanian fan bases.

Serena Williams is widely regarded to be one of the greatest tennis players of all time.

She has won 23 Grand Slam singles titles, the most by any player in the Open Era, and the second-most of all time behind Margaret Court (24). The WTA ranked her world No 1 in singles on eight separate occasions between 2002 and 2017. On her sixth occasion, she held the ranking for 186 consecutive weeks, tying the record set by Steffi Graf. In total, she has been No 1 for 319 weeks, which ranks third in the Open Era for women behind Graf and Martina Navratilova.

Williams’ quest for that elusive 24th Grand Slam singles title continues - and Wimbledon is widely believed to be her best chance. Although she reached the final in both 2018 and 2019, she was well beaten by Angelique Kerber and Halep, respectively, and has not played a match on grass for two years.

Iga Swiatek is the youngest player in the Top 10 of the WTA rankings, and is currently ranked No 9 in the world.

She began playing regularly on the WTA Tour in 2019, the same year she made her tour debut, entering the Top 50 at the age of 18 after her first appearance in a WTA final and a fourth-round appearance at the French Open where she was defeated by Simona Halep.

She then stunned the tennis world by winning the 2020 French Open, becoming the first Polish player in history to win a Grand Slam singles title. During her dominant run to the title, she did not drop a set or lose more than five games in any match.

Her French Open title also made her the youngest singles champion at the tournament since Rafael Nadal in 2005, and the youngest women’s singles champion since Monica Seles in 1992.

She was voted WTA Fan Favourite Singles Player of the Year in 2020.
