Wimbledon 2025: British juniors Hannah Klugman, Mika Stojsavljevic and Mimi Xiu set for main-draw debuts | UK News

For the first time in Wimbledon history, there will be three British players aged 17 and under in the women’s singles draw.

Mika Stojsavljevic, Hannah Klugman and Mimi Xu have been rewarded with main-draw wildcards after demonstrating their potential over the past few years.

Stojsavljevic, 16, has made the most notable progress, having won the US Open girls’ title last year.

Last month, Klugman, also 16, became the first Briton in almost 50 years to reach the French Open girls’ final.

The 17-year-old Xu is ranked just outside the world’s top 300 and has already beaten two top-100 opponents on the grass this year.

Now, having got their GCSE and A-Level exams out of the way, the trio are focusing on their Wimbledon senior debuts.

“We’ve known for a long time that this is a good three-ball on the girls’ side,” Iain Bates, the LTA’s head of women’s tennis, told Sport.

“All three are on different paths to the top of the game. But their progress shows they are a pack of players – that is the most positive sign right now.

“Winning and going far in junior Grand Slams is a massive achievement, but having your friends and peers pushing you to go to the next stage is even more important.”
