Men's defending champion Jannik Sinner will not face an injured Carlos Alcaraz, potentially aiding Novak Djokovic's bid for a record-breaking 25th major title. On the women's side, Iga Swiatek looks to defend her title, with Aryna Sabalenka considered a favourite given the recent trend of eight different winners in as many years. In the UK, matches are available live on BBC iPlayer, BBC Sport website, BBC One, and BBC Two, with the BBC having secured broadcast rights until at least 2033. TNT Sports will also show both the men’s and singles finals in the UK.In fullWimbledon TV schedule: How to watch every match on BBC in the UKThank you for registeringPlease refresh the page or navigate to another page on the site to be automatically logged inPlease refresh your browser to be logged in
