Six-time and defending champion Novak Djokovic and French Open winner Iga Swiatek were announced Tuesday as the top seeds for the fortnight of Wimbledon, which began Monday in London.

While Swiatek is the No. 1 women’s player in the world, the No. 1 men’s player in the world, Daniil Medvedev, will not participate in the grass-court Grand Slam. The All England Club in April opted to block all Russian and Belarusian players from this year’s tournament due to their countries’ role in the invasion of Ukraine.
