The Wimbledon Championships commence on Monday and run through July 11, with comprehensive coverage available across all BBC services. Jannik Sinner returns to defend his men’s title, while Carlos Alcaraz remains sidelined due to a wrist injury. On the women’s side, defending champion Iga Swiatek looks to build on her previous success.
Fans can access live action from every court via the BBC Sport website, app, and BBC iPlayer. Television broadcasts are scheduled daily on BBC One and BBC Two, supplemented by the dedicated Wimbledon Extra channel on iPlayer. For those preferring audio, BBC Radio 5 Live, 5 Sports Extra, and BBC Sounds provide extensive commentary, alongside the ‘All About Wimbledon’ podcast.
This year, the BBC introduces an inclusive feed for Centre Court matches on iPlayer tailored for visually impaired viewers, developed in collaboration with accessibility experts. Additionally, an on-site analysis suite will provide viewers with deeper tactical insights and video breakdowns.
The total tournament prize fund has reached £64.2m, with singles champions earning £3.6m each. Despite this record increase, some players continue their protest regarding the percentage of revenue allocated to prize money by limiting their media availability throughout the first week.
The BBC team includes veteran presenters and analysts such as Clare Balding, Isa Guha, John McEnroe, and Martina Navratilova. Six British players qualified for direct entry, including Cameron Norrie and Emma Raducanu, while numerous wildcards were awarded to British competitors to bolster the home representation.
