Completely white outfits, lush green lands, strawberries and crème and scintillating champions trophies after two weeks.
The players and fans are preparing for about fifteen long -awaited tennis action while the Wimbledon 2025 championships begin on Monday.
Best players with unique quirks, here is what you need to know about the tournament:
The main round of the championships begins on Monday June 30 with the first round games in simple male and female. Here are the key dates of the matlone and female matches to the Grand Slam:
The third and oldest tennis chelem of the year, and the only one played on the grass, attracts thousands of visitors to its famous tennis courts and the All England lawn (AELTC) club in southwest London, the United Kingdom.
The place is also known as SW19, shortened from its SW19 5AG postal code.
During the two weeks of the main rounds of the tournament, the city is bathed in the purple and green colors of the event, with stores, cafes and restaurants with decorations on the theme of tennis.
Carlos Alcaraz: The double champion is preferred to defend its title after winning the French open this year, as well as the Queen’s Club championship, a pre-Wimbledon tournament in London considered as a general rehearsal for the Slam.
Jannik Sinner: The world number one has not yet seized the Wimbledon trophy, but its ascent through the ranking in the past two years and wins in two of the last three Slams make him the main contemporary of Alcaraz.
Aryna Sabalenka: The world number one has perhaps not yet played the final of Wimbledon, but has dominated the classification of women since October 2024 and played in the final of the last three Grand Chelem. She won the Australian and the United States Open in 2024 and after losing to Roland-Garros, the Belarusian will seek to add Wimbledon to his list of titles of majors.
Marketapoutova: The most fit Grass-Cut player and the Wimbledon champion in 2023 have increased the female ranking in recent weeks. Vondrusova won the Berlin Open, where she defeated Sabalenka, Ons Jabeur and Madison Keys from the title. While Wimbledon’s triumph of the Czech player’s Czech player may have been a surprise, the 25-year-old will be the one to watch in 2025.
Men’s:
Women’s:
Yes. All players must be dressed in white – no white or cream – when they walk on the field for their matches. Not only should clothes and shoes be white, but all caps, headbands and bracelets by a player can also only be white. The underwear of male players must also be entirely white. The organizers are more tolerant towards colored clothing on the courts of practice.
Although there is no strict dress code for spectators, they are encouraged to dress intelligently while attending matches in the central court or the number one court.
For those who were invited to watch a match of The Royal Box, an intelligent dress is compulsory.
The championship is often considered as an unofficial play in fashion, especially when celebrities and dignitaries have frequent the courts in recent days.
The tournament joined Australian Open and US Open by replacing line judges on the field with a live electronic call system.
The organizers say that its 80 former civil servants will be employed this year as match assistants, two on each court offering support to the referee, while they will also provide a backup if the electronic system fails.
In contrast striking with the various fast foods consumed in sports stages around the world, Wimbledon offers its participants a unique delicacy: strawberries and cream.
True to its name, the SW19 specialty is nothing more than juicy British red strawberries dipped in fresh cream, but the distinct combination and mass consumption of the Régal year after year have made a novelty Wimbledon.
According to the organizers, at least 7,000 liters (1,850 gallons) of cream and 28,000 kg (62,000 lb) of strawberries – specially cultivated for the tournament in a Kent farm – are consumed during the championship fortnight.
The Grande Martina Navratilova Czech-American has won the female title in simple occasions and has an amazing 20 Wimbledon titles, including seven women and four mixed doubles from 1976 to 2003.
Roger Federer in Switzerland, often considered the greatest male player, won eight Wimbledon titles between 2003 and 2017.
The Wimbledon public voting bulletin, which was held in the last months of the previous year, is the first and the easiest way to buy tickets for the following year.
Otherwise, fans can buy tickets during the day for the two weeks of the tournament by joining the famous Wimbledon queue.
From the metal doors of the AELTC land, the snake queue around Church Road and well in public parks in front of the place.
Fans are starting to queue the end of the evening for the next day entry, which can bring them tickets for one of the main exhibition shorts or simply entry into the tournament premises. The tents are launched, the snacks and drinks are shared, and the long hours while waiting for a chance to enter the place have passed to follow the online scores or repeating while waiting.
“Tickets are sold on a better available, one per person who makes the queue and is not transferable,” according to the organizers, and once the capacity limit is reached, entry is only possible when people leave.
The money price of the tournament increased by 7% for a record pot of $ 72.6 million in order to reduce the pressure of players for a greater share of profits from the Grand Slam.
The winners of the titles of male and female singles will each receive $ 4.08 million, an increase of more than 11% in 2024, while a main draw is worth a minimum of $ 89,683, up 10%.
The tournament will be broadcast in more than 220 territories around the world via satellite, land and digital broadcasters.
Al Jazeera Sport will cover the finals of male and female singles with its full text of live text and photo comments.
