The tournament joins the US and Aussie Opens in utilizing video review systems.
Replay technology will be launched at The Championships in the upcoming tournament.
Competitors will gain the option to question particular rulings from the chair umpire, mirroring the protocol already in place at both the US Open and the Aussie major.
This technology will be operational on the main stadium and the number one court for the duration of the tournament and on the other four show courts when they are staging singles matches.
This move follows just a season following the All England Club implemented electronic line calling, which brought an end to the longstanding role of line officials.
What Can Be Reviewed?
Competitors will not be permitted to dispute the call of the ELC system, but are allowed to request the umpire to re-examine other situations, including:
- If a tennis ball has bounced twice.
- Whether a shot touched an opponent's racquet or body during play.
- Potential interference at the conclusion of a rally.
Notably, there will be an unlimited number on the number of challenges a competitor can ask for.
A Recent Example
An illustrative example took place in Indian Wells last week, where Daniil Medvedev initiated the review system against Jack Draper.
Draper conceded it was a difficult situation for the official, but believed his rival had "played the rules quite well."
Official Aurelie Tourte watched a video and determined the player was responsible for hindrance, awarding the point to his opponent.
Growing Trend
This technology aren't exclusive to Grand Slams. It has been in use at the US Open for two years and the Aussie Open this year.
Furthermore, it is increasingly prevalent on the WTA circuit, and by next season the men's ATP Tour will have video reviews in place at all of its tournaments.
Further Updates
A further change at Wimbledon 2025 involves the introduction of graphical cues on displays to support the audio calls from the electronic line calling system.
This solves situations where fans have sometimes been unsure if a shot was out or in.
Finally, with exactly 100 days remaining until the start of the Championships, the AELTC have also revealed an increase in daily attendance at the qualifiers in Roehampton.
