Wimbledon will replace line judges with automated electronic line calling (ELC) from 2025, ending 147 years of tradition, to enhance efficiency and accuracy.
The decision to adopt Live ELC was made following successful testing during this year's Championships and is believed to offer greater efficiency over existing systems.
ELC, powered by artificial intelligence, is preferred by players as it allows them to rely on technology without needing to participate in officiating their matches.
Last year's incident involving Andy Murray demonstrates the potential benefits of ELC; he lost a crucial point due to a call that could have been overturned.
