Zverev officially out of Wimbledon after surgery, Djokovic set to be top seed
ATPWednesday, 15 June 2022 at 17:04
Alexander Zverev will not play at Wimbledon after surgery on his ankle injury which will likely keep the new World No.2 out of action until at least the US Open.
Zverev was taking on Rafael Nadal in the semi-finals at Roland Garros and the match was on the verge of entering a second-set tiebreaker. However, during a lengthy baseline exchange, he went over on his right ankle and screamed in pain instantly.
With Daniil Medvedev also out of Wimbledon due to being banned from the tournament alongside fellow Russians and Belarusians, it means Novak Djokovic will be top seed in SW19 as he looks to defend his title despite the rapid fall that will come with no ranking points for the Serbian.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
