Ferrer, 33, was due to face Britain's James Ward in the first round of the grass-court Grand Slam, which starts today.
But the eighth seed, a Wimbledon quarter-finalist in 2012 and 2013, has decided against risking further damage to the elbow.
"David Ferrer has withdrawn from the Gentlemen's singles due to an elbow injury," a Wimbledon statement read yesterday.
