There is much excitement in the tennis world as Wimbledon 2024 gets underway on Monday. Unsurprisingly, there are several top players in the draw. This includes last year’s women’s champion Marketa Vondrousova and the 2024 Australian Open winner Jannik Sinner. There are many great opening round contests, including Iga Swiatek vs Sofia Kenin, which is among the five best women’s first round matches. However, there have also been further withdrawals from the tournament. We at LWOT already reported on four players to withdraw from Wimbledon. This article names four more players who have decided not to play and then lists their replacements in the draw.
