EMMA RADUCANU will be seeded 10th for this year's Wimbledon Championships, the All England Club has confirmed.
The US Open champion, who has been battling injury in the build-up to the tournament, advances one place from her world ranking due to the absence of world No.6 Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus.
Wimbledon announced in April that it would ban players from Russia and Belarus due to the ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
British men's No.1 Cameron Norrie rises three places from his ranking to be seeded ninth, while Dan Evans will be seeded 29th.
World No.1 Daniil Medvedev and Russian compatriot Andrey Rublev are both missing from the line-up, while world No.2 Alexander Zverev is also out due to injury.
Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal assume the top two men's seedings respectively, while world No.1 Iga Swiatek tops the women's seeds in front of Anett Kontaveit and Ons Jabeur.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
