2025 Wimbledon: Schedule, How to Watch with Sling, and More

Following a classic French Open win, Carlos Alcaraz has eyes on a third-straight Wimbledon crown. Here’s a preview and how to watch the most matches live with Sling.

The men’s Tennis Final at Roland-Garros was an instant classic, with top-ranked Jannik Sinner battling second-ranked Carlos Alcaraz for five-and-a-half hours, the second-longest major final ever. In the end, Alcaraz saved a record three championship points and rallied from a two-set deficit to claim his second-straight French Open title.

Alcaraz will attempt to do the same at Wimbledon, which gets underway Monday, June 30. Alcaraz enters the tournament on a career-best 18-match winning streak, and he’ll open his back-to-back Wimbledon defense against veteran Italian Fabio Fognini. On the women’s side, French Open winner (and recent Vogue covergirl) Coco Gauff will begin her quest for her second-straight major title against Ukrainian Dayana Yastremska. Here’s a closer look at the oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament and how to watch Wimbledon live with Sling.

The Wimbledon bracket was set on Friday, June 27. On the men’s side, World No. 1 Jannik Sinner will face fellow Italian Luca Nardi in his opening round matchup. As mentioned above, No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz will open the tournament against Fabio Fognini, while No. 6 Novak Djokovic – who is attempting to tie Roger Federer’s record eight Wimbledon singles titles – will open Wimbledon against Alexandre Muller. The host nation Britain has 23 players in the singles brackets, their most since 1984. Fourth-seeded Jack Draper carries their biggest hopes, but he’ll have a tough task to make it to the Final, as his draw has him potentially facing Djokovic, Sinner, then Alcaraz in the last three rounds.

As for the ladies draw, No. 1 overall seed Aryna Sabalenka opens the tournament against Canadian qualifier Carson Branstine. No. 2 Coco Gauff takes on Dayana Yastremska, while defending women’s champion Barbora Krejcikova takes on Alexandra Eala in the first round. No. 3 Jessica Pegula will play Italian qualifier Elisabetta Cocciaretto and fourth seed (and last year’s runner-up) Jasmine Paolini takes on Latvian Anastasija Sevastova.

What Are the Odds for Wimbledon?

As of the Friday before the tournament, Carlos Alcaraz (+120) has the best odds on the men’s side. He’s followed by Sinner at +200, Djokovic at +650, and Jack Draper at +1800. On the women’s side, Sabalenka is the favorite with +260 odds, followed by Elena Rybakina at +600, Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff at +800, and Mirra Andreeva and Marketa Vondrousova at +1600.
