Five players withdrew from the Gentlemen's Singles field of Wimbledon 2010 Thursday, the day before the draws were made.

Even though none of the five were considered serious contenders for the title, each of them takes with them a serious grass court pedigree and at least one previous foray deep into the second week of the fortnight.
