We've left behind NBC's terrible poo poo garbage coverage of the French Open and returned to the warm bosom of https://www.espn.com/watch/ for https://www.wimbledon.com/ To start the slam season, Novak "Djoker" Djokovic won the Australian Open for the 9th time. At the French Open, he pwned Rafael "King of Clay" Nadal in the semifinals and came from 2-0 sets down to beat Stefanos "Greek God" Tsitsipas to become the only male player in the Open Era to win a double career slam. The first male Open Era calendar year slam (golden slam this year because of the Olympics) is also on; Steffi Graf in 1998 is the most recent person to complete the calendar slam, in 1988, and it was a golden slam. Roger "Swiss Maestro" Federer is seeded 6 and on the opposite side of the draw from Novak. The women's draw is open. Serena Williams is still the favorite since Simona Halep (who beat her in 2019) isn't playing due to a calf injury and Naomi Osaka (who is unproven on grass) withdrew for mental health reasons. Since the last Wimbledon in 2019, there are a number of new big names but we don't have much data for them on grass, so a lot of top seeds could lose in the 1st week.
