  • Liang En-shuo and Japanese partner Shuko Aoyama are seeded 13th in the Wimbledon women's doubles.
  • They could face fellow Taiwanese Hsieh Su-wei and her Chinese partner Wang Xinyu in the third round.
  • Other Taiwanese players also compete in doubles, with Chan Hao-ching facing top seeds in her opener.

Liang En-shuo, nicknamed "Little Cannon," makes her Grand Slam debut as a seeded player in the Wimbledon women's doubles. Paired with Japan's Shuko Aoyama, the duo secured the 13th seed.

Their potential path could lead to a third-round showdown against a formidable all-Taiwanese combination: veteran Hsieh Su-wei and her partner Wang Xinyu of China. Hsieh, a former world No. 1 in doubles, brings extensive experience to the court.

Other Taiwanese players are also in contention. Chan Hao-ching, alongside Danish partner Clara Tauson, faces an immediate challenge against the top-seeded pair of Katerina Siniakova and Taylor Townsend in their opening match. Wu Fang-hsien and her Japanese partner Eri Hozumi will compete against the Mexican-Italian duo of Giuliana Olmos and Ingrid Neel. In the men's doubles, Ho Chih-jen and his German partner Hendrik Jebens are set to play against Constantin Frantzen and Robin Haase of Germany and the Netherlands, respectively.
