Canadian Leylah Fernandez will open her Wimbledon campaign against Indonesia's Janice Tjen in the first round of the Women's Singles on Tuesday, June 30, 2026.

Data-driven simulations by Stats Insider, based on 10,000 runs, give Fernandez a 66 percent chance of advancing past Tjen.

Fernandez enters the grass-court Grand Slam as the 22nd seed and is ranked 23rd in the world.

Tjen has climbed into the top 40 after being ranked 993rd two years ago.

Despite the ranking gap, Tjen has defeated Fernandez in both of their hard-court meetings this year, in Dubai and Melbourne.

Both players have struggled on grass recently.

Fernandez has lost three of her four matches on the surface this season, while Tjen has won only one of five.

According to Tennis Temple, Fernandez has never advanced past the second round at Wimbledon in four previous appearances.
