Wimbledon 2016: Britain's Laura Robson, Liam Broady and Katie Swan among wildcards

Former British number one Laura Robson will receive a wildcard for this year's Wimbledon Championships, which begin on 27 June.

The 22-year-old, who reached 27th in the world rankings in July 2013, is fully fit after two injury-plagued seasons but is currently ranked 308th.

Other British players allocated wildcards are Liam Broady, Alex Ward, James Ward, Tara Moore and Katie Swan.

German Dustin Brown, who beat Rafael Nadal last year, is another wild card.

Swan, 17, qualified for the main draw at the Miami Open in March, while Hong Kong-born Moore, 23, reached the quarter-finals of the Nottingham Open at the weekend.
