Iga Świątek began her 2026 Wimbledon title defense with a first-round match against Taylor Townsend.
The champion is now coached by Francisco Roig, following her transition from Wim Fissette.
A potential second-round match against Karolina Pliskova is set for Thursday following Pliskova's win over Tereza Valentova.
Świątek is defending 2,000 ranking points gained from her previous victory on the grass courts.
