Emma Raducanu has quit before Wimbledon opens. Jannik Sinner, Aryna Sabalenka and Novak Djokovic all play their first matches on day one. Serena and Venus Williams are back at the All England Club for the first time since they retired. Organisers and that players’ association have made a truce, ending the prize‑money fight that could have ruined the event. The prize‑money row had loomed over that event, but that agreement clears the way for play.
British hopefuls are under a microscope as some players keep protesting outside the grounds. Security is tight. All courts run a full slate of matches.
