Every tennis player dreams of lifting a Wimbledon title, but a favorable draw is often the crucial first step towards achieving that goal.
In the 2024 men`s singles final, Spanish sensation Carlos Alcaraz secured a straight-set victory over Serbian superstar Novak Djokovic.
Meanwhile, Barbora Krejcikova held her nerve to defeat Jasmine Paolini in the women`s championship match.
Both champions navigated challenging paths to the final, including Alcaraz`s memorable five-set battle against Frances Tiafoe in the third round.
Even though their high rankings exempt them from playing qualifiers, both players will undoubtedly be watching the draw with keen interest to see who they might face in the opening round.

Are Wimbledon 2025 Tickets Still Available?
In short, yes – tickets are still available for every day of the Wimbledon championships.
However, guaranteeing entry to specific matches on a particular day is considerably more challenging.
While the public ballot for pre-purchased tickets has closed, Wimbledon remains one of the few major sporting events where the public can still purchase tickets on the day of play.
The Queue remains an exceptionally popular method for attending the event, though arriving very early (often even the night before) is strongly advised.
Each day, a limited number of Show Court tickets and Grounds tickets are sold to those in the queue.
Different ticket types provide access to specific courts.
Availability is limited for both types, but additional tickets frequently become available later in the day as attendees leave.
Wimbledon also offers a variety of hospitality packages, which typically include fine dining, complimentary drinks, premium seating, concierge services, and buggy shuttles to the gate.
