The AELTC are pleased to announce that we are in a position to allocate prize money to the 620 players whose world ranking would have enabled them to gain entry into The Championships 2020 by direct acceptance into the Main Draw or Qualifying event.

The AELTC recognises the impact of The Championships' cancellation on the officiating community.
We have worked with @the_LTA to provide a payment to the LTA licensed officials who would have worked at The Championships this year, and also a number of International Officials.

Given that the Public Ballot had been fully allocated for The Championships 2020, and our intention as stated at the time of cancellation to transfer those tickets so successful applicants can purchase the same day & court for 2021, we won't be staging the Public Ballot for 2021.
The AELTC has decided that the grass court seeding formula used since 2002 has served its time, and from The Championships 2021 seeding for the Gentlemen’s singles draw will be based solely on ranking. There will be no change to the method of seeding for the Ladies’ singles draw.
