Wimbledon 2025 promises another fortnight of world-class tennis, with a compelling mix of legends, rising stars, and local favourites ready to light up the All England Club.
When Will They Play?
While traditions like the defending men's champion opening play on Centre Court Day 1 offer some clues, the schedule remains fluid. Player rankings, match outcomes, injuries, and even the weather all shape who plays when. Wimbledon's old "grass court" seeding formula is no longer used, and the All England Club now focuses on balancing marquee matchups with fair court distribution--though surprises are part of the magic.
More will become clear after the 2025 Wimbledon Qualifying Competition, held Monday 23 June to Thursday 26 June. Sixteen men and sixteen women will earn a place in the main draw by winning three matches. And if there's a last-minute withdrawal, a "lucky loser" from the final qualifying round could still make it in.
We'll be updating this page throughout the build-up and during the Championships. In the meantime, here's a look at the key names to follow:
Men's Singles: The Contenders
Carlos Alcaraz - The Reigning Champion
Back-to-back Wimbledon titles in 2023 and 2024 have cemented Alcaraz as the man to beat. With four Grand Slam wins under his belt, the 21-year-old Spaniard's explosive game is tailor-made for grass.
Jannik Sinner - World No. 1
Sinner's rise has been relentless. After reaching the Wimbledon quarter-finals in 2024, the Italian's consistency and power make him a top title threat in 2025.
Novak Djokovic - The Evergreen Challenger
With 24 Grand Slam titles, Djokovic isn't done yet. He fell short in the 2024 final, but chasing a record-equaling 8th Wimbledon crown, he remains very much in the conversation.
Women's Singles: Stars on the Rise
Barbora Krejčíková -- Defending Champion
Though her 2025 campaign ended early, Krejčíková's 2024 title showcased her all-surface adaptability and mental steel.
Jasmine Paolini - Breakthrough Threat
Finalist at both Roland-Garros and Wimbledon last year, the agile and strategic Paolini is now a genuine title contender.
Elena Rybakina - The Grass Court Force
Wimbledon champion in 2022 and semi-finalist in 2024, Rybakina's big serve and cool composure make her a perennial threat on grass.
UK British Hopes: Flying the Flag
Emma Raducanu - On the Rise Again
Raducanu's Madrid Open win is a major confidence boost. Ranked No. 49, she's aiming for a seeded spot at Wimbledon for the first time.
Jack Draper - Leading the Charge
The 23-year-old has broken through with a US Open semi-final and a grass title in Stuttgart. Left-handed, powerful, and hungry.
Katie Boulter - British No. 1
After a career-best ranking of No. 23 in late 2024, Boulter is back from injury and looking to reach the second week at SW19.
Rising Stars to Watch
Lulu Sun - Quarter-Finalist in 2024
The New Zealander impressed on debut last year and brings a fearless, high-energy game.
Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard - France's New Hope
At 21, he's already won an ATP 500 and impressed with a fourth-round Wimbledon run. Big serve. Big upside.
Jakub Mensik - Czech Teen to Watch
Just 19, Mensik is cracking the top 50 and turning heads with his poise and power.
Doubles Spotlight
Henry Patten & Harri Heliövaara -- Title Defenders
This Anglo-Finnish pair lifted the Wimbledon trophy in 2024 and repeated their success in Melbourne earlier this year. Expect them to go deep again.
Taylor Townsend & Kateřina Siniaková - Doubles Dominance
Wimbledon champions in 2024 and Australian Open winners in 2025, this pairing blends flair and grit to devastating effect.

It was an easy process
