The third Grand Slam of the year begins in Wimbledon. How can you follow the tournament live? Here you can find all the information.
Things are getting serious again on the “sacred turf” of Wimbledon. For many tennis fans, it is the highlight of the year – since Monday, the event has been taking place on Church Road in a decidedly traditional atmosphere, with record prize money of 50 million British pounds (around 59 million euros) on offer. The winners of the singles at the 137th Championships will collect almost 3.2 million euros, and for the first time, Prime Video is the German TV partner.

Angelique Kerber will be competing on Tuesday. For the 2018 winner, it could be the last appearance at her favorite tournament. Expectations are low, and Kerber can only surprise in a positive way. After her comeback at the beginning of the year, the 36-year-old has not achieved any top results, and at her home appearance in Bad Homburg she was eliminated in the first round.

Wimbledon: Who are the favorites?
Who are the favorites at this year’s edition of the tournament? The race seems wide open for the women. Tour dominator Iga Swiatek has not yet made it past the quarterfinals at Wimbledon. 2022 title holder Jelena Rybakina, two-time finalist Ons Jabeur and US Open champion Coco Gauff are all must-watch. Marketa Vondrousova, the defending champion, is also worth keeping an eye on.

The circle of favorites is smaller for the men. Recently, three players have distanced themselves somewhat from the competition at Grand Slam level: defending champion and French Open champion Carlos Alcaraz is the first to be mentioned, followed by Australian Open winner Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev.
However, Wimbledon is clearly the weakest major tournament for the German number one so far. One should never write off Grand Slam record champion Novak Djokovic, who is aiming for a quick comeback after meniscus surgery. The serving giant Hubert Hurkacz announced his ambitions by reaching the final in Halle/Westphalia.
