Winning a Grand Slam is a monumental achievement in tennis, but winning Wimbledon is the peak of the sport. The tournament has remained the most prestigious event of tennis since it began in 1877. When you think of tennis, Wimbledon comes to mind right away.
The 2025 tournament is expected to kick off soon, with many big names looking to win everything. On the men’s side, Carlos Alcaraz will try to advance his open French momentum. Alcaraz heads to Wimbledon as the second-placed male player behind Janik Thinner, who Alcaraz lost to win the French Open. Arcalez has won Wimbledon for the past two years, so he is no stranger to succeed in the event.

On the women’s side, after taking away the tough competition last year, Barbora Krejcikova aims to protect her crown. However, after a disappointing performance at Wimbledon in 2024, many top women try to prove themselves. Both Koko Gouf and Iga Swiecsk suffered early losses in the tournament. Alina Sabalenka, number one woman, had to withdraw from the event due to a shoulder injury. It should give Krejcikova a lot of competition, as she seems to repeat.
With Wimbledon 2025 right around the corner, there’s everything you need to know about the prestigious event, including tournament dates, schedules, draws and more.
