The best of the women’s game will also be hoping to produce some dramatic match-ups, as Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka all look to win their first grass Grand Slam title and deny Barbora Krejčíková a chance to defend her title.

British hopefuls Jack Draper and Emma Raducanu will both be hoping to make a splash in front of a home crowd but there will be stiff competition.

All the action from Wimbledon can be watched live every day until Sunday July 13 on the BBC, with coverage starting at 11am on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer. 

Clare Balding will be taking on main hosting duties again for the mid-afternoon and evening matches on BBC One and iPlayer.

For those without tickets or not wanting to join the infamous queue with thousands of others, SunSport has got everything you need to know about the line-up working over the two weeks of the BBC’s coverage.
