Many will have been surprised not to see Paula Badosa registered in the qualifying phase of Wimbledon 2026, knowing that her WTA ranking was not enough to enter directly. However, the Spanish player was just two withdrawals away from being able to break into the 128 women who will compete at the All England Lawn Tennis Club, and those last-minute dropouts have occurred. The injuries to Kartal and Baptiste have led to Badosa securing her place in the main draw.
Officially, with the withdrawals of Sonay Kartal and Hailey Baptiste due to injury, Paula Badosa will be able to compete in the main draw of Wimbledon.
