Wimbledon 2026 is just around the corner. After an intense clay court season that ended at Roland Garros, the players, with little rest, have had to transition from a slower and more resistant surface to a faster and more technical one. The players' bodies, already worn out from months with a heavy load of clay court matches, are facing a rapid change to adapt to a few weeks where the support, shots, and rhythm are completely different. All of this, combined with an increasingly tight schedule, is leading to last-minute withdrawals for the London Grand Slam.

Here are the two last-minute withdrawals for Wimbledon 2026

Specifically, there are two last-minute withdrawals who will not be present starting on June 29 at Wimbledon. The first one is Tomas Machac. The Czech player has stated on his social media that the issue with his left foot has not been resolved on time, and therefore, he is forced to withdraw from the third Grand Slam of the year to focus all his efforts on returning for the North American hard court swing beginning in August. His spot in the main draw will be taken by the Dutch player Jesper de Jong, who surprised in Paris by entering as a Lucky Loser and reaching the round of 16.

The other absence will be from Sebastian Korda. The American has been out of commission since the Miami Open, where he defeated Carlos Alcaraz and lost to Martín Landaluce in the round of 16. After the match with the Spaniard, Korda confirmed having back problems that remain unresolved, causing him to miss both the clay and grass court seasons. In fact, last year he had to withdraw from Wimbledon due to a stress fracture in his right shin. This time, his spot will be filled by Alexander Muller.
