The Championship is back.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Wimbledon was canceled in 2020 but things are a go in 2021. Just two weeks and a day after the French Open champions were crowned, tennis' grass court championship will begin on Mon., June 28.

Two years may have elapsed but the storylines are running deep this year. Novak Djokovic, who captured the men's title in 2019, returns to the All-England Club as the No. 1 seed and halfway to his first career Grand Slam as he's won the Australian and French Open titles already in 2021. Eight-time champion Roger Federer continues his return to peak form and will not have to worry about Rafael Nadal eclipsing him for most men's Grand Slam titles at the tournament. 

The Spaniard, who is tied with Federer at 20, headlines a number of stars skipping tennis' lone grass court Slam. Among those not competing are Naomi Osaka, 2019 women's champion Simona Halep, Dominic Thiem, David Goffin and Milos Raonic. 

But while the women's side won't have the No. 2 (Osaka) and No. 3 (Halep) players in the world competing, No. 1 Ash Barty is. She's never made it past the fourth round at Wimbledon and she has a big name looming. If the Aussie makes it to the semis, she could see Serena Williams. The American is still looking for her 24th Grand Slam to tie Margaret Court's all-time record. The holder of the most women's singles titles in the Open Era, Williams has won on grass seven times, most recently in 2016.

Here is the full Wimbledon 2021 schedule, including draws, TV coverage breakdown and order of play for each round.
