The tournament joins the American and Australian Opens in utilizing video review systems.
Video review systems are set to arrive at The Championships for the 2025 edition.
Players will gain the right to question specific calls from the official, following the practice already in operation at each of the US Open and the Australian Open.
The new system is slated for use on the main stadium and the number one court for the duration of the Championships and on the other four featured courts when they are hosting singles contests.
This move comes just a season following the AELTC rolled out ELC, which effectively ended the centuries-old tradition of line officials.
Reviewable Decisions
Competitors will not be permitted to challenge the accuracy of the electronic line calling, but they can request the official to re-examine other decisions, such as:
- If a ball has bounced twice.
- Whether a shot touched an opponent's racquet or person on the way past.
- Possible interference end of a rally.
Importantly, there will be an unlimited number on the amount of challenges a competitor can ask for.
A Recent Example
An illustrative example occurred in Indian Wells recently, where Daniil Medvedev initiated the video challenge against Jack Draper.
The British player conceded it was a difficult situation for the official, but believed his opponent had "used the regulations effectively."
Official Aurelie Tourte viewed a replay and determined Draper was responsible for hindrance, awarding the point to his opponent.
Broader Adoption
This technology are not exclusive to major tournaments. The system was adopted at the American major for two years and the Australian Open since 2025.
Additionally, it is increasingly prevalent on the WTA circuit, and by next season the ATP circuit plans to have video reviews in place at all of its events.
Other Changes
A further innovation at Wimbledon this year involves the introduction of visual indicators on displays to support the audio calls from the ELC system.
This solves instances where the crowd have sometimes been uncertain if a ball was out or in.
In other news, with precisely 100 days remaining until the start of the Championships, the AELTC have further revealed an expansion in daily capacity at the qualifying competition in Roehampton.
