The tournament joins the US and Australian Opens in implementing replay technology.
Video review systems will be launched at Wimbledon for the 2025 edition.
Athletes are granted the ability to challenge particular decisions made by the official, echoing the system currently in use at each of the American Grand Slam and the Aussie major.
This innovation will be operational on Centre Court and the number one court throughout the Championships and on the other four show courts when they are staging singles contests.
This move comes just a year after the All England Club implemented electronic line calling, which brought an end to the longstanding tradition of line officials.
What Can Be Reviewed?
Players cannot to dispute the accuracy of the ELC system, but are allowed to ask for the umpire to review specific situations, such as:
- If a tennis ball has double-bounced.
- If a shot made contact with an rival's racket or person during play.
- Possible hindrance at the conclusion of a rally.
Importantly, there will be an unlimited number on the amount of reviews a competitor can ask for.
A Recent Example
A recent case took place in a recent tournament recently, where a top player used the video challenge against his opponent.
The British player conceded it was a difficult situation for the umpire, but believed his rival had "played the rules effectively."
The umpire watched a replay and determined Draper was responsible for interference, awarding the point to Medvedev.
Wider Implementation
This technology aren't new for major tournaments. It has been in use at the American major for two years and the Aussie Open since 2025.
Furthermore, it is increasingly prevalent on the WTA circuit, and by next season the men's ATP Tour will have the system in place at every one of its tournaments.
Other Changes
A further change at The Championships 2025 will be the introduction of visual indicators on scoreboards to support the audio calls from the electronic line calling system.
This solves situations where the crowd have occasionally been unsure whether a ball was in or out.
In other news, with exactly 100 days remaining until the start of the Championships, the AELTC have also revealed an expansion in daily attendance at the qualifying competition in Roehampton.
