The much-anticipated Wimbledon tournament starts Monday with eyes on defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and top seed Aryna Sabalenka. Notably, Emma Raducanu, Britain's top female player, strives to regain form against young wildcard Mingge Xu after battling injuries and inconsistency since her breakout in 2021.
Amidst the buzz, 27-year-old Taylor Fritz employs an unconventional strategy, playing competitive matches instead of resting or practicing, hoping it gives him a competitive edge.
