1972 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles qualifying

Players who neither had high enough rankings nor received wild cards to enter the main draw of the annual Wimbledon Tennis Championships participated in a qualifying tournament held one week before the event.[1] Two players withdrew from the main draw after qualifying had commenced, leading to the two highest ranked players who lost in the final qualifying round to be entered into the main draw as lucky losers.[2]
