The total prize money of the 2018 Wimbledon Open continues to rise. This year, the total prize money of Wimbledon is as high as 34 million pounds, an increase of 7.6% compared to last year. The men's and women's singles champions can each take away 2.25 million pounds.
Since Wimbledon men's singles has special seeding rules, the current world number two Federer will appear at this year's Wimbledon as the top seed. As the defending champion, Federer has a lot of pressure to maintain points at Wimbledon this year, while Nadal, who was stopped in the fourth round last year, is likely to keep his throne after Wimbledon.
Federer has a good draw this year. There is no player in the 1/4 area that poses a big threat to Federer. The highest-ranked seed player is Anderson, the runner-up of at last year's US Open. However, Anderson has only reached the quarterfinals or above of a Grand Slam singles event once before (that is, he won the runner-up at last year's US Open). It can be said that he is a Grand Slam player. A lackluster player in the tournament.
District 2/4 is led by last year's runner-up Cilic . The biggest threat in this district can be said to be the No. 6 seed Dimitrov . However, Dimitrov's performance this season has been weak and he has no outstanding results. On the other hand, Cilic's condition is at its peak. I believe that there is basically no big obstacle to the meeting between Federer and Cilic. It is worth mentioning that Dimitrov will face three-time Grand Slam champion Wawrinka , who has returned from injury, in the first round. This will be a very severe test for both of them.
Compared with the upper half, the competition in the lower half is much more intense. Three of the Big Four - Djokovic , Nadal and Murray are all gathered in the bottom half. In addition, Azverev and del Potro fell into the third and fourth zones respectively. Coupled with the interference of Kei Nishikori, Edmond, Tim, Goffin and others, who can reach the semi-finals in the lower half will be full of suspense. It is equally difficult for Nadal to reach the Wimbledon men's singles final after many years.
In terms of women's singles, the distribution of the upper and lower halves appears to be relatively even. The top two seeds, French Open champion and Australian Open champion Halep and Wozniacki have their own difficulties to overcome.
In the 1/4 area guarded by Halep, it can be said that there is not much difficulty before the fourth round, but in the eight-to-four game, Halep will most likely usher in Kvitova Or a strong challenge from Sharapova , and Ostapenko, who reached the Wimbledon quarterfinals last year, also has a good chance of breaking through from the first area.
Defending champion Muguruza's luck seems better. Although there are many good players in the second zone, including former runner-up Kerber , some players who are still growing, such as Barty, Kasatkina, Naomi Osaka, Garcia and others want to play on the grass. The difficulty of achieving a breakthrough is actually not small.
Wozniacki, who guards the fourth zone, is likely to face her good sister A Radwanska, who has just rejuvenated a little bit, in the third round. Grassland masters Vandeweghe, Case and others also fell behind. In District Four.At the same time, Serena Williams , who played as a seed player amid controversy, also fell into the fourth zone. The big seed will be Svitolina . Serena Williams and Woz, the tennis sisters, are likely to face each other in the quarter-finals.
Kapliskova, the seventh seed in the third zone, will likely face Azarenka in the second round. Last year's runner-up Venus Williams also fell into the third zone. Stephens , who has just reached the French Open finals, is the largest seed in the region and she will strive to break through.
The luck of Chinese players is average. Zheng Saisai and Wang Qiang will meet in the first round, and the winner between the two will most likely face the world's number one Halep. Peng Shuai will face former US Open champion Stosur . Wang Yafan has good fortune. She will compete with the unknown Blinkova in the first round. The only Zhang Shuai who played as a seed player had a mediocre draw. She will compete with the former French Open semi-finalist Petkovic .
In addition, several Chinese players who participated in the Wimbledon qualifying tournament, including , Duan Yingying, and , were completely wiped out and none of them broke through.
