Navratilova stays with form book
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Martina Navratilova is staying with the form book and tipping the top seeds, Pete Sampras and Steffi Graf, to win the singles titles at Wimbledon.
Navratilova, who retired from the singles circuit at Wimbledon in 1994 after winning nine titles - six of them in a row - will be back at Wimbledon this year taking part in the mixed doubles. She will team up with Jonathan Stark, of the United States, in a bid win to win a record 20th title, surpassing the number held by Billie Jean King. The first round of the mixed doubles will be the 39-year-old's first competitive match this year.
"I can't imagine Steffi or Pete not winning. But the first week will be dangerous," she said. "I think Monica Seles can be dangerous and Arantxa [Sanchez] Vicario will be hungrier than any of them."
