Wimbledon 2026 got underway on day one with world No 1s Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka both in action against Miomir Kecmanovic and Teodora Kostovic respectively, while Novak Djokovic, seeded seventh, faced Yibing Wu. Ahead of play, leading players including Sinner and Sabalenka called off a planned media protest after reaching an agreement with the All England Club (AELTC), having previously threatened to limit media appearances to 15 minutes pre-tournament and post-match in the first week. The day also featured high-profile matches including Daniil Medvedev vs Marin Cilic, Coco Gauff vs Tamara Korpatsch, and Naomi Osaka vs Elsa Jacquemot.
