O'Brien gets Wimbledon wildcard
Katie O'Brien
O'Brien is one of 10 British wildcards at Wimbledon
Britain's Katie O'Brien has been handed the final wildcard for the women's singles at Wimbledon.

She joins fellow Brits Anne Keothavong, Melanie South, Elena Baltacha and Naomi Cavaday in the first round.

Marin Cilic and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga have been awarded the two remaining wildcards in the men's competition.

British wildcards entering the men's singles draw will be Alex Bogdanovic, Richard Bloomfield, Jamie Baker, Joshua Goodall and Jonathan Marray.

Croatian Cilic pulled off a surprise first-round win over Tim Henman's at Queen's Club this week, while Frenchman Tsonga upset Leyton Hewitt in the second round.

O'Brien has featured in the first round at Wimbledon for the past three years and has lost on each occasion.
