Grand Slam champions Emma Raducanu, Naomi Osaka and Caroline Wozniacki have all been handed Wimbledon wildcards.
But the 2019 winner Simona Halep has not been invited following her drugs ban.The All England Club today announced 14 wildcards, with all seven on the men’s side going to British players. It means Dominic Thiem has not been invited to play in his final season.Raducanu has climbed back up to world No.165 after reaching the semi-finals of the Rothesay Open in Nottingham at the weekend. She will accept a wildcard to save a tournament she could have entered using her protective ranking.
Wozniacki played her first match on grass since Wimbledon in 2019 at the Rothesay Classic in Birmingham this week. The Dane retired in January 2020 and had two children before returning to tennis in June last year.
