Wimbledon women’s singles seeds confirmed: Iga Swiatek at No 1, Coco Gauff’s milestone

Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff at Wimbledon in 2023

Iga Swiatek holds a sizeable lead over her rivals as the world No 1 and she will be the top seed at the 2024 Wimbledon Championships, while Coco Gauff will be seeded above Aryna Sabalenka. 

Five-time Major champion Swiatek will be the top seed for the 10th consecutive Grand Slam tournament in a row — a streak that started at the 2022 French Open.

Gauff became the world No 2 for the first time following the French Open earlier this month and Wimbledon will be the first Major she will play as the second seed.

The American was battling Sabalenka for second spot last week and held onto the position after progressing further than the Belarusian at the Berlin Open.

Two-time Australian Open winner Sabalenka will be seeded third at Wimbledon, while Elena Rybakina, who triumphed at the All England Club in 2022, will be the No 4 seed.

Jessica Pegula will be seeded fifth, defending champion Marketa Vondrousova will occupy the No 6 spot, with Jasmine Paolini and Qinwen Zheng completing the top eight.
