Marcelo Rios and Juan Carlos Ferrero are the first big
names to withdraw from Wimbledon this year. Rios has withdrawn with a leg
injury. He also missed last year’s championships. Ferrero, who had been
threatening to boycott the event in a row about not being seeded, has pulled
out with a back injury. He may also miss the Davis Cup tie with the United
States later this month. Magnus Larsson and Daniel Vacek have also been forced
to withdraw.
