The 22-year-old exited last year's Championships in the third round and is yet to demonstrate her strengths consistently on grass.
ARYNA SABALENKA (BELARUS)* World ranking: 2The big-hitting Belarusian has polished her game this year and become less erratic with her shot-making, which helped her win the Australian Open in January.
The 33-year-old, who stunned Elena Rybakina to win the Miami Open, has not reached a Wimbledon quarter-final since her title run in 2014.
