However, the question is: Who will fight whom? All about final draw seedings in a Grand Slam For Wimbledon 2025, the main draw will be announced on Jun 27. The possible matches are based on the athlete's seedings. Just like other tennis tournaments, the top two seeds can only play against each other in the finals. Moreover, the third and fourth seeds can be placed in either the top or bottom half of the draw. Seeding is a method used in tennis to place the top players in a tournament draw, thereby preventing them from playing against each other during the early matches of the competition.

Janik Sinner is set to be his biggest opponent. Just like at the Roland Garros, the two athletes can only face each other in the final match. Moreover, Zverev and Draper will avoid meeting the top players earlier in the tournament. Here is the order of seedings in the men's tournament: Jannik Sinner Carlos Alcaraz Alexander Zverev Jack Draper Taylor Fritz Novak Djokovic Lorenzo Musetti Holger Rune Daniil Medvedev Ben Shelton Alex De Miñaur Frances Tiafoe Tommy Paul Andrey Rublev Jakub Mensik Francisco Cerúndolo Karen Khachanov Ugo Humbert Grigor Dimitrov Alexei Popyrin Tomas Machac Flavio Cobolli Jiri Lehecka Stefanos Tsitsipas Felix Auger-Aliassime Alejandro Davidovich Fokina Denis Shapovalov Alexander Bublik Brandon Nakashima Alex Michelsen Tallon Griekspoor Matteo Berrettini See also 2025 Madrid Open: Matches put on hold due to a big power outage For the women's tournament, the athlete who might win the Grand Slam title is uncertain.

More so, Coco Gauff has her eyes set on this year's Wimbledon title as well, and Iga Swiatek might do better despite not liking the grass courts.
