On November 27, 2017, the All England Club announced that they would hold a Quad Doubles exhibition match, for the first time, in 2018.[1][2] Up to that moment, the Quad division had not played in either Wimbledon or Roland Garros. Andy Lapthorne and David Wagner had long campaigned for the inclusion of the division in the Championships.[3][4][5] In December 2018, the All England Lawn Tennis Club announced that there will be a Quad Singles draw and a Quad Doubles draw in 2019.[6]
