The Wimbledon 2026 tournament kicks off in just under two weeks, and another top-20 player, Valentin Vacherot, has already confirmed his absence. The Monegasque tennis player is still recovering from the discomfort he experienced in Madrid, which worsened during Roland Garros, forcing him to withdraw from the third Grand Slam of the season. This absence adds to that of Alcaraz, and the big question to be answered right now is whether Fils will be able to compete at the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
One consequence of Vacherot's absence in Wimbledon 2026 is that the first Alternate on the list, Alex Molcan, will now take his place. In the event of another withdrawal, Matteo Berrettini would enter the main draw, relieving the tournament organizers of the decision whether to grant him a wildcard or not. This also impacts the battle for seeding. Currently, it would be the world number 34 who would secure the final seeded spot at Wimbledon 2026.
