The tournament joins the American and Australian Opens in employing video review systems.
Replay technology will be launched at Wimbledon this year.
Players are granted the right to challenge particular rulings made by the official, following the protocol already in place at each of the US Open and the Aussie major.
This innovation will be accessible on Centre Court and Court One for the duration of the Championships and on the other four featured courts when they are staging singles contests.
This development comes just a season following the AELTC introduced ELC, which brought an end to the centuries-old role of line judges.
Reviewable Decisions
Competitors will not be permitted to dispute the call of the electronic line calling, but they can request the official to re-examine other decisions, such as:
- Whether a ball has double-bounced.
- Whether a ball made contact with an rival's racket or body on the way past.
- Possible interference at the conclusion of a rally.
Importantly, there will be an unlimited number on the number of reviews a competitor can request.
A Recent Example
A recent case occurred in a recent tournament last week, where Daniil Medvedev used the video challenge against Jack Draper.
Draper admitted it was a tough call for the official, but thought his rival had "used the regulations effectively."
Official Aurelie Tourte viewed a replay and determined Draper was guilty of hindrance, granting the point to Medvedev.
Wider Implementation
This technology are not exclusive to major tournaments. The system was adopted at the US Open since 2023 and the Aussie Open since 2025.
Additionally, it is becoming more common on the WTA circuit, and by next season the men's ATP Tour plans to have video reviews implemented at all of its events.
Other Changes
Another innovation at Wimbledon 2025 involves the introduction of graphical cues on displays to complement 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 precisely 100 days to go until the start of the tournament, the AELTC have also announced an expansion in daily capacity at the qualifying competition in the qualifying venue.
