The 2014 Wimbledon Championships is a tennis tournament that will be played on outdoor grass courts. It will be the 128th edition of the Wimbledon Championships and the third Grand Slam event of the year. It will take place at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, and will run from 23 June to 6 July. It will consist of events for professional players in singles, doubles and mixed doubles play. Junior and wheelchair players will also take part in singles and doubles events as well as retired players in invitation doubles.

Andy Murray of Great Britain is the defending champion in men's singles, and Marion Bartoli of France is the women's singles champion; however, her retirement from tennis in 2013 means that she will not return to defend her title.
