How is the Draw for Wimbledon Determined?

The draw for Wimbledon is determined through a computerized seeding system that ensures the top-ranked players are placed in different sections of the draw. This is done to create a fair and competitive tournament, ensuring that the best players have a chance to reach the later rounds.

The seeding system is based on the players' world rankings as of the Monday before the tournament begins. The top 32 seeds are placed in the draw in a way that ensures they will not face each other in the first two rounds. The remaining players are then randomly drawn into the draw.

The draw is divided into eight sections, with 16 players in each section. The top eight seeds are placed in the first eight positions in the draw, and the remaining seeds are placed in the following positions based on their ranking.

Once the draw is complete, the players are assigned to courts for their matches. The matches are played over two weeks, with the final being played on the second Sunday.
