BBC and other British media report that the man's name was red-flagged and when he tried to participate in the lottery that can provide an opportunity to buy a ticket, the security system that the organizer All England Club has set up reacted.

It was during the tournament in Dubai in February that the stalker put fear into the Briton Emma Raducanu.

The man disturbed her during the competition week and when Raducanu discovered him in the stands during a match, she drew the judge's attention to the matter. The man was taken away and taken into custody by the police.

Afterwards, Raducanu said that she could hardly breathe on the court.

It was very emotional. After the match, I burst into tears, but not necessarily because I had lost, said the 22-year-old, who won the US Open 2021.

The day before, the man had left a letter to the Briton and taken a picture of her.

The Briton was stalked in 2022 by a man who was found at her residence three times and later sentenced to five years of ban on visits.

This year's Wimbledon starts on June 30.
