The seeded players are locked in for Wimbledon 2026 as we near the start of the annual hunt for tennis’s most prestigious crown.
Top seed Jannik Sinner is the heavy favourite in the men’s singles in the absence of two-time winner Carlos Alcaraz, who is missing due to a wrist injury, while Novak Djokovic heads into the tournament with his joint-lowest grand slam seeding in eight years.
World No.1 Aryna Sabalenka, who arrives in SW19 chasing a first Wimbledon title, leads the women’s draw. 2022 winner Elena Rybakina, defending champion Iga Swiatek, American Jessica Pegula, and French Open winner Mirra Andreeva round off the top five.
Jack Draper’s long spell out means he has dropped down the rankings, which leaves Cam Norrie and Emma Raducanu as the only Brits who are seeded in the singles.
