Wimbledon Embraces Video Review System in 2025.
Wimbledon will follow the American and Aussie Opens in employing video review technology.
Video review technology will make its debut at Wimbledon this year.
Players will gain the ability to challenge certain decisions made by the official, following the system currently in operation at each of the US Open and the Aussie major.
The new system is slated for use on Centre Court and Court One for the duration of the tournament and on the other four featured courts when they are hosting singles contests.
This development arrives only a year after the AELTC implemented electronic line calling, which terminated the centuries-old tradition of line judges.
Scope of Challenges
Players will not be permitted to dispute the accuracy of the electronic line calling, but are allowed to request the official to re-examine other decisions, including:
- If a tennis ball has bounced twice.
- Whether a shot made contact with an rival's racket or body during play.
- Potential hindrance at the conclusion of a point.
Notably, there is no limit on the number of reviews a player can initiate.
A Recent Example
A recent case occurred in Indian Wells recently, where Daniil Medvedev initiated the review system against Jack Draper.
The British player conceded it was a difficult situation for the umpire, but believed his opponent had "played the rules quite well."
Official Aurelie Tourte watched a replay and determined Draper was guilty of hindrance, granting the point to his opponent.
Growing Trend
This technology aren't new for major tournaments. It has been in use at the US Open for two years and the Aussie Open since 2025.
Additionally, it is becoming more common on the women’s WTA Tour, and by the coming year the ATP circuit will have video reviews implemented at every one of its tournaments.
Additional Innovations
Another innovation at Wimbledon this year will be the addition of visual indicators on displays to support the audio calls from the ELC system.
This solves situations where fans have sometimes been uncertain whether a ball was in or out.
In other news, with precisely a century of days to go until the beginning of the tournament, the AELTC have further announced an increase in daily attendance at the qualifying competition in the qualifying venue.
