James Ward, Laura Robson handed Wimbledon wildcards

British duo James Ward and Laura Robson have been handed wildcards for the main draw at this year's Wimbledon.

Ward has struggled for form during 2016 but after a third-round appearance at SW19 last year, he is given the opportunity to try to defend the ranking points that he accumulated 12 months ago.

After 17 months out with a wrist injury, Robson is trying to work her way back up the WTA rankings and the left-hander - who reached the fourth round in 2013 - will hope for an improved performance after falling at the first hurdle at Roland Garros last month.

Liam Broady - who made headlines on day one last year after overturning a two-set deficit to beat Marinko Matosevic - and Alex Ward also get the chance on the big stage, as do Tara Moore and Katie Swan who have been given entries into the ladies draw.
