Wimbledon 2026 preview and where to watch
The Wimbledon returns to London, Great Britain for its 2026 edition, played from 29 Jun – 12 Jul on Grass.
What's at stake
As one of the four Grand Slams, this is the highest-paying tournament of the season and the largest ranking-points haul on tour: 2,000 points to the singles winners. The two-week, best-of-five (men) format means depth and durability matter as much as form.
The Wimbledon starts in 57 days. The draw lands a few days before the first ball is struck, we'll publish the bracket here as soon as it's set.
The conditions
Grass courts reward serve quality and aggression. The ball stays low, exchanges are short, and a single broken serve can decide a set. Footwork has to be quieter; the surface punishes slipping and over-commitment.
Big servers and aggressive returners are typically the threats on grass. The week’s pace and bounce will favour those who arrive with rhythm, watch the warm-up events on the same surface for an early read on form.
