Wimbledon 2025 Draw: When and where to follow

The anticipation for the season's third Major, Wimbledon 2025, is reaching its tipping point with each passing day. The grass court Major will get underway from Monday, June 30, and will conclude on Sunday, July 13.

The draw ceremony for the men's and women's singles draw will be held on Friday, June 27, at 10:00 a.m. local time. The ceremony can be followed live on the tournament's official YouTube channel, with live updates being posted on the tournament's other social media platforms as well.

The singles draw will feature 128 players fighting across seven rounds until the champion is crowned. Carlos Alcaraz is the two-time defending champion on the men's side, while Barbora Krejcikova is the defending champion on the women's side.

Alcaraz beat Novak Djokovic in the final for the past two years to emerge victorious at the All England Club. He's bidding to become the first player since the Serb himself to capture three titles on the trot. He's one of the top picks to win the title, along with Jannik Sinner, Jack Draper and Djokovic.

Krejcikova, meanwhile, will aim to become the first woman to win back-to-back Wimbledon titles since Serena Williams defended her crown in 2016. However, the Czech is far from the leading contender to win the title this time.

Barbora Krejcikova secured her second Major title in singles at last year's Wimbledon. However, not many are expecting her to mount a successful title defense this year. Following a semifinal finish at the WTA Finals 2024, she was on an injury hiatus until last month.

Krejcikova returned to action at the Internationaux de Strasbourg in May, and lost in the first round of singles and doubles. While she managed to reach the second round of the French Open, she commenced her grass season with a first-round exit from the HSBC Championships. She will have another crack at scoring her first win on grass at the Eastbourne Open.

World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, the runner-up at both Majors this year, is among the favorites to go all the way in London. Madison Keys and Coco Gauff, who beat the Belarusian to win the Australian Open and the French Open respectively, are also in the running.

Former Wimbledon champions Elena Rybakina and Marketa Vondrousova are among the other potential contenders. Last year's finalist Jasmine Paolini will aim to finish the job this time, while some of the other top players will aim to make an impact as well.
