Revision as of 19:21, 28 June 2022
The 2022 Wimbledon Championships is a Grand Slam tennis tournament that is taking place at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in Wimbledon, London, United Kingdom. Novak Djokovic and Ashleigh Barty are the reigning champions in the singles tournaments. Barty will not defend her title, having retired from professional tennis in March 2022.[1]
This year Russian and Belarussian players are barred from competing. In reaction, both the WTA and ATP withdrew ranking points from the tournament.
Tournament
The tournament will be played on grass courts, with all main draw matches scheduled to be played at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, Wimbledon from 27 June to 10 July 2022. Initial wild card entries were first announced on 14 June 2022.[2] Qualifying matches are scheduled from 20 June to 23 June 2022 at the Bank of England Sports Ground in Roehampton.
The 2022 Championships will be the 135th edition, the 128th staging of the Ladies’ Singles Championship event, the 54th in the Open Era and the third Grand Slam tournament of the year. The tournament is to be run by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) and to be included in the 2022 ATP Tour and the 2022 WTA Tour calendars under the Grand Slam category, as well as the 2022 ITF tours for junior and wheelchair competitions respectively. The tournament is scheduled to consist of men's (singles and doubles), women's (singles and doubles), mixed doubles, boys' (under 18 – singles and doubles, under 14 – singles), girls' (under 18 – singles and doubles, under 14 – singles), which will also be a part of the Grade A category of tournaments for under 18, and singles & doubles events for men's and women's wheelchair tennis players. This edition will also mark the return of the gentlemen's and ladies' invitational doubles competitions for the first time since 2019, along with the introduction of a new mixed invitational doubles draw.
This will be the tournament's first edition with a scheduled order of play on the first Sunday during the event, dubbed "Middle Sunday". Prior to the 2022 edition, the tournament had seen only four exceptions to the tradition of withholding competition on Middle Sunday to accommodate delayed matches during championships that were heavily disrupted by rain.[3] Additionally, this will also be the first edition of the tournament to have a modified champions tie break rule in the final set. Unlike in 2019 and 2021, which had a standard 7 point tie break at 12 games all in the final set, this tie break is played up to 10 points when a match reaches 6 games all, but the tie break has to be won by two clear points to win the match.

Controversy regarding the participation of Russian and Belarusian players
In April 2022, the AELTC moved to ban players representing Russia or Belarus from entering the 2022 championships, in consequence of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, stating that "it would be unacceptable for the Russian regime to derive any benefits from the involvement of Russian or Belarusian players."[6] They also cited the guidance given by the British government, regarding assurances that players are not in support of the war, as risking endangering the players and their families.[7] The Lawn Tennis Association also banned players representing Russia and Belarus from other tennis tournaments taking place in the UK.[8] Apart from the Davis Cup and Billie Jean King Cup, players from these countries have been allowed to compete in other tournaments, including at the Grand Slam level at the 2022 French Open, as neutral players without national flags.[9] The US Open also confirmed that Russian and Belarusian players will be able to compete in their tournament.[10]
The decision attracted criticism from many players, including from defending and six-time champion Novak Djokovic, who described it as 'crazy'.[11] Andrey Rublev, one of the players affected by the ban, accused the All England Club of making an 'illogical' and 'discriminatory' decision.[12] Others such as Ukrainians Marta Kostyuk and Sergiy Stakhovsky, came out in support of the ban.[13] The three governing bodies of tennis — the ATP, WTA, and ITF — criticised the decision. On 20 May, they stripped the tournament of its ranking points, on the basis of the principle of participation based on merit rather than nationality, as well as the unilateral decision by the AELTC that contrasts with the remainder of the tour.[14] This decision received criticism as well, with two-time men's singles champion Andy Murray commenting that the decision will likely not affect participation in the event and has frustrated players.[15]
