For players, AI means fewer arguments—except when systems fail mid-match.

🔍 A Personal Moment

I watched the Pavlyuchenkova vs. Kartal match live. The stadium went silent, then murmurs turned to confusion; even the cry of “Out!” became mechanical. In that moment, Wimbledon felt both ancient and futuristic — a reminder that every tradition has its turning point.

⚡ Final Thought

Wimbledon 2025 isn’t just about who wins or loses—it’s about what tennis chooses to keep, and what it dares to let go. Tradition may be fading, but the emotion? That’s unchangeable.
