In a notable decision, Wimbledon organizers have reversed its ban on Russian and Belarusian players, allowing them to participate under certain conditions, such as signing neutrality declarations. This move aims to prevent nations from capitalizing on their athletes’ participation in the tournament.
The 2023 Championships will also see the continued use of retractable roofs on the Center and No. 1 courts, minimizing the impact of rain delays since their introduction in 2019.
