Wimbledon Ready? Marcus Willis on grass tennis, life on tour & made up players

Serena's Back, Evo's Done & Every Brit in the Draw — Our Full Wimbledon 2026 Preview

Wimbledon is here. And this year it's personal. Marcus Willis ATP 65 and his mate Dave break down the most storyline-loaded fortnight in tennis — from the comeback nobody saw coming to the farewell that deserved better. Serena Williams is back at SW19 for the 22nd time, armed with a wildcard and a point to prove — or as she put it, absolutely nothing to prove. "I don't need to win. I've won more than most people have in their whole lives." Then there's Dan Evans. Evo played his final singles match as a professional in the sweltering heat of Roehampton qualifying — and lost 7-5, 6-0. No wildcard. No fairytale send-off. Just one of British tennis's great characters going out quietly, with his head high. Andy Murray? He swapped rackets for a clipboard. The two-time champion is now part of Jack Draper's coaching squad as British No. 1 takes on sixth seed Taylor Fritz in a mouth-watering first-round clash. Meanwhile Emma Raducanu could face world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka as early as the third round. No pressure. Plus the full Brit rundown — Boulter, Norrie, Fearnley, Fery, Klugman, Swan, the qualifiers who made it through, and every name flying the flag this fortnight.
