Line judges stare the court during the men’s singles quarter-final match on the 10th day of the 2022 Wimbledon Championships at The All England Tennis Club in Wimbledon July 6, 2022. — AFP picLONDON, June 28 — Wimbledon is guaranteed to be picture-perfect when it gets under way next week, but the courts will never look the same again after the demise of line judges .
The Australian Open and the US Open have already gone down this route, leaving the French Open as the only one of the four Grand Slams still to use humans in the role. “And as you would imagine, for us, balancing the tradition with innovation is really a thing that we look at in pretty much every single decision we make.”
“And player expectation now, across the professional game at the highest level, is that the lines will be called in this way.” The decision to switch to live ELC, which builds on existing ball-tracking and line-calling technology, was made following extensive testing at last year’s Championships.
