Wimbledon just released their top seed for the upcoming tournament as World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz is all set to start as the No.1 seed in Men’S singles. 23 Grand Slams champion Novak Djokovic will be the No.2 seed for the Wimbledon 2023.
Carlos Alcaraz lost the French Open 2023 semi-final against Novak Djokovic and will be looking to win his second grand slam at Wimbledon. The 20-year-old Spanish tennis player will be the first Gentlemen’s Singles top seed at Wimbledon not named Djokovic, Federer, Murray or Nadal since 2003. Although Djokovic won the last slam, Carlos took over the ATP Rankings after winning a grass-court tune-up tournament at Queen’s Club.
