I will not forget these three weeks, Paris will stay forever with me in my heart, merci.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/french-open\">French Open<\/a> is over for the women, attention is turning to whether or not\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/maja-chwalinska\">Chwalinska<\/a> will have to go through qualifying to play at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/wimbledon\">Wimbledon<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Even though she is ranked high enough to be seeded, Andy Roddick pointed out that the acceptance list for Grand Slams is drawn up six weeks prior to the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>That means, the Chwalinska may have to overcome three qualifying matches to get to the tournament proper in SW19.<\/p>\n<p>Roddick also stated that players such as the returning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/serena-williams\">Serena Williams<\/a> could get a Wimbledon wildcard, although it is uncertain whether she would play singles.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, a host of wildcards will go to British players, including the injury-troubled <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/jack-draper\">Jack Draper<\/a>. After the French Open final, one Boris Becker brought up this very topic.<\/p>\n<p>After initially expressing his disappointment that Chwalinska went away from her natural game against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/mirra-andreeva\">Andreeva<\/a>, he brought up the wildcard topic.<\/p>\n<p>He said on TNT Sports, \u201cI hope she keeps it up. I thought today she played too normal. She played like everybody else. She should stick to her unorthodox game, the drop shots, the tempo changes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe has to play surprising tennis and that is what got her to the final. I like her personality, she seems to be very down to earth and humble. I hope she stays\u2026 she\u2019s around 25 in the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wonder whether she gets a wildcard for Wimbledon. And I\u2019ve got the right guy next to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A smiling Tim Henman, who has been involved in the wildcard selection process at Wimbledon, provided a clue to that question.<\/p>\n<p>He replied, \u201cI think there is a pretty good chance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Frenchwoman Lois Boisson did not get a Wimbledon wildcard last year after making the semi-finals of the French Open but Chwalinska will hope she is more lucky.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHAT NEXT? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/chris-evert-provides-excuse-maja-chwalinskas-french-open-loss-mirra-andreeva\">Roland Garros: Chris Evert provides \u2018excuse\u2019 for Maja Chwalinska\u2019s final loss to Mirra Andreeva<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End --><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tim Henman drops hint on Maja Chwalinska\u2019s Wimbledon wildcard bid after French Open final loss Richie Mills 06 Jun 2026 5:51 PM 3EMC0XH \u00a9Thierry Larret\/MAXPPP &#8211; PARIS (75) 06\/06\/2026 Thierry Larret \/ Maxppp. Tennis.
