Novak Djokovic is the three-time defending champion.[1][2]

Rafael Nadal is vying to become the first man to achieve the double Surface Slam,[3][4] and the second man, after Björn Borg, to complete the triple Channel Slam.[5][6][7] Moreover, he is attempting to become the first man to win at least three majors on all surfaces (clay, hard and grass).[i] He is also attempting to win a 23rd major singles title, equaling Serena Williams' Open Era tally.

This will mark the first edition of Wimbledon since 1998 not to feature record eight-time champion Roger Federer.[8] As a result, Federer will fall outside of the top 100 in the ATP rankings for the first time since 10 October 1999.[9]

This will be the first Wimbledon since the introduction of the ATP rankings in 1973, and the first major tournament since the 1999 Australian Open, where both the reigning world No. 1 and No. 2 (Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev, respectively) will not compete. Medvedev is prohibited from playing due to his Russian nationality, while Zverev is recovering from an ankle injury.[10][11]

This will be the first edition of Wimbledon to feature a champions tie-break, a 10 point tie-break when the score reaches six games all in the fifth set,[12] and the third edition to feature a final set tie-break rule.[ii]

Seeded players

The following are the seeded players. Seedings are based on ATP rankings as of 20 June 2022. Rankings and points are as before 27 June 2022.

As a result of special ranking adjustment rules due to the COVID-19 pandemic, players are defending the higher of (i) their points from the 2021 tournament or (ii) the remaining 50% of their points from the 2019 tournament. Those points were not mandatory and are included in the table below only if they counted towards the player's ranking as of 27 June 2022. Note that this is a different rankings adjustment system than the one that the WTA is using for the women's tournament.

The ATP is removing ranking points from the 2022 tournament as a result of the All England Club's decision to ban Russian and Belarusian players from the tournament.[17] Points dropping from the 2021 or 2019 tournaments will accordingly be replaced by the player's next best result, regardless of his performance at Wimbledon in 2022.[18]

† This column shows the higher of the player's points from the 2021 tournament or 50% of his points from the 2019 tournament. Only ranking points counting towards the player's ranking as of 27 June 2022 are reflected in the column.
‡ Because the ATP is removing ranking points from the 2022 tournament, 2021 points will be replaced by the player's next best result instead.
§ The player had no points from either the 2019 or 2021 tournaments counting towards his ranking on 27 June 2022. Accordingly, no points will be replaced.
