Surface: Grass courts

2022 Women's singles champion: Elena Rybakina, Kazakhstan
2022 Men's singles champion: Novak Djokovic, Serbia
Last year at Wimbledon: Rybakina beat Ons Jabeur 3-6, 6-2, 6-2 to win her first Grand Slam trophy &iquest; at age 23 and ranked 23rd. It was the first Wimbledon women's final since 1962 between a pair of players both making a debut in the title match at a major tournament. Djokovic defeated Nick Kyrgios 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (3) for a fourth consecutive championship at the All England Club and seventh overall there. It was also Djokovic's 21st overall major title &iquest; a total he has since raised to a men's-record 23.
Who is missing? Three superstars of the sport will not be competing at the All England Club: Roger Federer and Serena Williams have retired, and Rafael Nadal is injured, recovering from surgery for a hip problem that has sidelined him since January. Other top players absent from the brackets this time include 2017 champion Garbi&ntilde;e Muguruza (taking a break from the tour), 2018 champion Angelique Kerber (taking time off after having a baby), 2019 champion Simona Halep (provisional doping ban) and four-time major winner Naomi Osaka (pregnant).
Key statistics:
5-3: Swiatek's career record at Wimbledon, her least-successful major tournament.
19: Consecutive Wimbledon titles won by Federer, Djokovic, Nadal or Andy Murray.
Prize money: Total prize money for Wimbledon is rising to nearly 45 million pounds (about $56.5 million), which is more than 10&#37 higher than 2022 and more than 15&#37 higher than in 2019, the last pre-pandemic edition of the tournament. The two singles champions will each receive 2.35 million pounds ($3 million).&nbsp;
