The Wimbledon Championships 2023 is scheduled to start at the prestigious All England Club in London, UK on Monday.

All Wimbledon 2023 tennis matches will be live streamed in India. Wimbledon 2023 will conclude on July 16.

The third Grand Slam of the year and the only one played on grass courts, will see Serbian legend Novak Djokovic chase multiple records.

A title at Wimbledon 2023 will see Djokovic match Roger Federer's record of eight Wimbledon titles in men's singles. The Serbian tennis player is currently tied with American great Pete Sampras as the second-most successful men’s singles player at the Wimbledon in the open era.

Djokovic will also be eyeing his fifth consecutive men’s singles Wimbledon title - a feat that is achieved only by Roger Federer and Sweden’s Bjorn Borg. 

The Serb will also be looking for his third Grand Slam title in 2023. He won the Australian Open as well as the French Open earlier this year to overtake Nadal’s record of 22 Majors. 

With Rafael Nadal also out with an injury, the top player standing in the path of world No. 2 Djokovic will be world No. 1 and top seed Carlos Alcaraz from Spain. 

The two tennis players met at the French Open semi-finals in June with Novak Djokovic coming out on top. Before that, Alcaraz had beaten Djokovic at the ATP Masters 1000 Madrid semi-final in Spain last year. 

Djokovic is seeded second and will play Argentina’s world No. 67 Pedro Cachin in the first round. Former US Open champion Daniil Medvedev is seeded third. Wimbledon 2022 men’s singles finalist Nick Kyrgios of Australia is seeded 30th and in the same quarter as Djokovic. 

One of the most exciting first-round matches will see Australian Open 2023 finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece, seeded fifth, take on the 2020 US Open champion Dominic Thiem of Austria. The winner will potentially be up against two-time Wimbledon champion Andy Murray, currently ranked 39th and unseeded.

The seedings at Wimbledon 2023 were determined based on the current ATP and WTA rankings of men’s and women’s players, respectively.

In women’s singles, defending champion Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan is seeded third. Poland’s Iga Swiatek, ranked No. 1 since April last year, is the top seed followed by Aryna Sabalenka. Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur, the previous edition’s finalist, is seeded sixth.

Five-time Wimbledon singles champion Venus Williams will also play. The 43-year-old American will take on Tokyo 2020 bronze medallist Elina Svitolina in the opening round. Both tennis players have been given wild-card entries. 

Indian tennis players at Wimbledon 2023

Ankita Raina was the only Indian tennis player to take part in the Wimbledon 2023 singles competition. However, Ankita Raina, world No. 197, lost 3-6, 6(5)-7(7), 1-6 in the first round of the qualifiers against world No. 167 Jessica Bouzas Maneiro of Spain.

Rohan Bopanna will team up with his Australian partner Matthew Ebden in men’s doubles. The Indian-Australian duo has been in top form this season, having won Qatar Open and Indian Wells ATP Masters 1000 titles in 2023. They are seeded sixth in men’s doubles and will face the Argentinian pair of Guillermo Duran and Tomas Martín Etcheverry in the first round.

The mixed doubles draw for Wimbledon 2023 isn’t out yet.

Indian tennis ace Sania Mirza, who retired from professional tennis earlier this year, is expected to play in the Ladies Legends Invitation Doubles event at Wimbledon 2023. She will partner Great Britain’s Johanna Konta for the invitational event for former players.

Swiss legend Martina Hingis, Sania’s one-time doubles partner, will also be part of the Legends Invitation Doubles event.
