The 2022 Wimbledon Championships was a Grand Slam tier tennis tournament that took place at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in Wimbledon, London, United Kingdom. Novak Djokovic successfully defended his gentlemen's singles title to claim his 21st major title, defeating Nick Kyrgios in the final.[1][2] Ashleigh Barty was the reigning ladies' champion, but did not defend her title after retiring from professional tennis in March 2022.[3] The ladies' singles title was won by Elena Rybakina, who defeated Ons Jabeur in the final.[4]
This year, the AELTC barred Russian and Belarusian players from competing because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In reaction, the WTA, ATP, and ITF withdrew ranking points from the tournament.
