Dates:
The 2025 Wimbledon Championships will take place from Monday, June 30 to Sunday, July 13 at the historic All England Club in London. As always, it’s the crown jewel of the grass-court season and the third Grand Slam of the year, following the Australian and French Opens.
Men’s Wimbledon Singles Preview
Top Contenders:
- Carlos Alcaraz (ESP)
The defending Wimbledon champion and world No. 1 enters as the favorite. His powerful baseline game and ever-improving net play have translated well to grass, as seen in his 2023 and 2024 campaigns. - Jannik Sinner (ITA)
After reaching the semis in 2023 and making a strong run in 2024, Sinner is poised to take the next step. With a lethal serve and clean hitting, he’s one of the most consistent threats on tour. - Novak Djokovic (SRB)
At 38, the seven-time Wimbledon champion is still a contender—assuming full health. A slight injury setback in early 2025 has raised questions, but never count him out at SW19. - Daniil Medvedev (RUS) and Holger Rune (DEN)
Both are top-10 players capable of a deep run, though grass remains a less comfortable surface for them compared to hard courts.
Dark Horses:
- Ben Shelton (USA) – explosive serve and fearless game. Can a mens US player capture a major championship again?
- Jack Draper (GBR) – rising Brit with a strong grass pedigree and fan support.
Women’s Wimbledon Singles Preview
Top Contenders:
- Iga Świątek (POL)
The current world No. 1 has yet to fully conquer Wimbledon, but her all-court improvements and recent grass-court titles suggest she’s finally ready to break through on the surface. - Aryna Sabalenka (BLR)
A semifinalist in 2021 and 2023, Sabalenka’s aggressive power game makes her a serious title threat. If her serve holds up, she can dominate. - Elena Rybakina (KAZ)
The 2022 Wimbledon champion is arguably the best grass-court player on the WTA Tour. Her calm demeanor, big serve, and flat groundstrokes are tailor-made for Centre Court. - Coco Gauff (USA)
The reigning French Open champion is rounding into form on grass and is a fan favorite. With her athleticism and improving serve, she’ll be a contender.
Dark Horses:
- Ons Jabeur (TUN) – a two-time Wimbledon finalist seeking redemption.
- Mirra Andreeva (RUS) – the 17-year-old phenom could be a surprise package with nothing to lose.
What to Watch For
- British Hopes: Andy Murray‘s potential farewell appearance will be an emotional highlight if he competes. On the women’s side, Emma Raducanu’s return to Wimbledon after injuries will be closely followed.
- Weather & Schedule: Wimbledon’s new roof-ready courts reduce rain delays, but grass conditions can change rapidly—favoring the most adaptable players.
- New Technology: 2025 will see the continued implementation of fully automated line-calling on all courts, a major shift in tradition for the oldest tennis tournament in the world.
Wimbledon Champions Prediction:
- Men’s Champion: Carlos Alcaraz
- Women’s Champion: Elena Rybakina
