Wimbledon 2022

Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic and Emma Raducanu are all in action on what promises to be an enthralling opening day of Wimbledon 2022.

- 1979 - Martina Navratilova - 1978 - Martina Navratilova Casper Ruud is No.3 seed after his wonderful run to the French Open final, but there's a huge question mark over his grass-court prowess.

When he's on court he just keeps on winning, but staying fit is half of the battle for the Spaniard, and there are rumors this could be his last Wimbledon. Sky Sport (opens in new tab) (NZ) FREE live stream: BBC iPlayer (opens in new tab) (UK) Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic and Emma Raducanu are all in action on what promises to be an enthralling opening day of Wimbledon 2022.

The third Grand Slam tournament of the year gets underway on Monday as Wimbledon prepares to welcome full capacity crowds for the first time since 2019.

As expected, the ticket prices also vary based on the date and court. This can be accessed on the app stores for both iOS and Android devices. However, if you are after last minute tickets, then spectators will once again be able to queue for tickets for same day events, after the queue was closed last year due to Covid restrictions.

Wimbledon's prize purse this year is an all-time record for the grand slam.

- Round 2 – £78k - Round 3 – £120k Serena Williams’ wildcard entry brings excitement to a women’s singles which could see Iga Swiatek firmly establish herself as the world’s best player.

Wimbledon is back and there's a stacked line-up on day one at SW19. Join our writers for all the action.

So thank the lord for the closed roof on Centre Court and Court No 1, and discussions of the temperature and ball-flight therein. And by the looks of it, rain, even if “mostly cloudy” is the forecast on the official website. It would have been reasonable to assume that such a scenario would suggest a significant change at the top of the sport but Djokovic and Nadal are the main protagonists atWimbledonfor another year. He held his serve for the first game against Andujar, and gets chance for an early break, and one he gobbles up. It’s heavy, and the covers are on across the campus. That’s saved by an overhead by Andujar, but who double faults to hand over another, makes a bizarre, failed Hawkeye challenge on his second serve, then clunks a forehand into the ether to hand over the first set.

BBC is broadcasting coverage of the tournament, including Emma Radacanu and Andy Murray's opening ties, although Roger Federer will be missing.

Former Wimbledon Champion Andy Murray is due on Centre Court for his Wimbledon 2022 opener on Monday June 27. One of SW19's most beloved champions, Swiss Roger Federer had to pull out of the 2021 Wimbledon Championships through injury. The Serbian is due to take on South Korean Sunwoo Kwon from 1.30pm. British hope and former US Open champion, Emma Raducanu, is one the big names in this year's tournament. The tournament is one of four 'Grand Slam' events held across the tennis calendar. There is more British interest on the opening day too, with ninth seed Cameron Norrie due to open Court 2 at 11am.

The wildcard faces a seasoned pro in Tsurenko but it should hopefully be an excellent start to the day for fans of British tennis. 'Basically I just feel the time is right. Cameron Norrie is cruising, and is one game away from taking the first. Well, you can't say the players have not been treated to everything great about Britain… She had just been broken for a second time and trails 5-2. One of the biggest events in the British sporting calendar has rolled round again, and there is a blockbuster start to the first day of the championships at Wimbledon, MailOnline's Kishan Vaghela writes. But this is Murray's happy hunting ground and he will realistically be eyeing a run to the second week, which would be some achievement for a player with a metal hip. Murray skipped all-but one tournament in the clay-court season in order to prepare for Wimbledon and it looked like a wise decision as he made the final of an ATP Tour event in Stuttgart. And with the crowd behind her she will hope it will be one to remember. The match catching my eye is the one involving Benoit Paire, the fiery Frenchman who was warned last year for a lack of effort and told to stop 'wasting everybody's time' by a fan in a straight-sets defeat in the first round. Andujar exchanges a few words with the umpires and is keen to get back out there, but the groundsmen are on to cover the pitch and the players head off the court. The boy was led to a chair in the corner of the court, looking rather faint.

The first match is men’s singles with Alejandro Davidovich Fokina (Spain) playing Hubert Hurkacz (Poland). Next, for women’s singles Bernarda Pera (USA) will play world number 2 Anett Kontaveit (Estonia). Then for men’s singles Jan-Lennard Struff (Germany) will play world number 7 Carlos Alcaraz (Spain).

But we can’t get all of the things that we serve at the championships from a 10-mile radius,” she said. “Like every other business, our costs are increasing across the board, so we’re having to balance that challenge. But Bolton said this was no longer necessary due to improvements in “grass court technology, care and attention”. “[This is the] first year of permanent middle Sunday, so we are expecting a record crowd because of that,” she said. This is the furthest forward in the queue we’ve ever been, number 76 and 77. Sullivan said: “We’ve camped since 6pm yesterday, it’s my ninth time and Mum’s eighth time, she’s 85.

Andy Murray and Wimbledon go together like strawberries and cream, and the partnership gladly returns in 2022.

Reigning champion Novak Djokovic defeated Soonwoo Kwon as he reached the second round of Wimbledon on Monday afternoon.

"The amount of drama that we went through there, and it takes a long time to get over something like that. "All the pressure is on Djokovic and not his opponent. "After the last couple of months, it’s understandable that he still has a little bit of rust. I still have the love and the flame for this sport still burns in me. "I couldn’t go through him, so I had to figure out a way, tactically, to get in control of the points. All my childhood dreams came true on this court and it’s an honour to play on the Centre Court at Wimbledon.

Norrie is through but Jodie Burrage is out, while Raducanu and Murray are among the other Brits in action later on Monday.

Raducanu though did manage to save two break points at 5-4 and serve out the first set to the delight of a crowd that grew fuller as the match went on, and more involved too. More than 15 minutes had passed by the time both women had a game on the board, Van Uytvanck saving two break points in her first service game and Raducanu saving three. Umpire Kader Nouri had to remind them of their responsibilities to remain quiet during the point in the second set, but the excitement approached fever pitch when, after exactly 100 minutes, Raducanu brought up three match points. She could not consolidate though, and was broken herself, before retaliating for the third break in a row. She looked almost incredulously towards her box after sealing the second of them. Looking to complete the job, Norrie broke once more in the third game of the third set, and though he had two match points on Andujar’s serve at 5-3, he failed to convert those opportunities moments before the heavens opened for a second time.

This wasn't vintage Emma Raducanu for her first time gracing Centre Court but, in the end, it didn't quite need to be.

But a plea of “fight” had the desired effect and she immediately broke back. I’m extremely pleased to have come through that match. Instead, the first break went to van Uytvanck.

- Ken Skupski - Ranked 109 (doubles) - Jamie Murray - Ranked 21 (doubles) Not since 2016 has the prestigious SW19 tournament crowned a homegrown winner, when Andy Murray won his second title.

US Open champion Raducanu defeated the Belgian 6-4, 6-4 to reach the second round at SW19 in her first Centre Court appearance.

Coupled with the huge attention on the US Open champion’s homecoming and a tricky opponent, this was a major test, but Raducanu passed it impressively by claiming a 6-4, 6-4 victory. A couple of fizzing backhands, coupled with a poor volley and double fault from Van Uytvanck, gave Raducanu the first break in the seventh game. But there were no early causes for alarm as Raducanu threw herself into serves and groundstrokes, missing two break points in the opening game but then saving three on her own serve as the first two games lasted a gruelling 17 minutes.

Quite what this result means for the former world No1 and a long run at Wimbledon is unclear. He even threw an underarm serve into the third set for good measure. Come the second set, Murray’s first-service accuracy steadily climbed and, with it, his ascendancy in the match.

Djokovic's pursuit of a 21st grand slam begins with a four-set victory over Kwon.

WIMBLEDON — For a period it was barely possible to identify which of the players opening on Centre Court was the six-time Wimbledon champion. To be temporarily boxing the ears of the game’s greatest exponent on this surface was an unexpected bonus. An 80th victory in SW19 was now just a set away.

With the tournament at capacity for the first time in three years, the pair electrified an otherwise genteel atmosphere.

He looks good too, loose and limber and comfortable in his movements, with some of that old bounce, the choppy little steps, the slice, the shambling dashes to the net. Victory made it a perfect, if slightly tentative, start for the return of Wimbledon’s full house. The standard dipped for a while. There was a different kind of energy in seeing Raducanu win here, a straight‑sets victory against the experienced Belgian Alison Van Uytvanck that might have been a lot more awkward. For anyone with a sense of scale the story to this point isn’t disappointment, or distracting perfume deals (she really could have had a lot more of those). It is instead one golden run where the cards all fell right, a feat that may well remain a one-off for her and for anyone else. There has been an eagerness to cling to these pegs of the pre‑pandemic summer: Glastonbury, Wimbledon, queueing endlessly for a low-cost airline seat. Wimbledon is a place to luxuriate, to suck the sweetness out of the summer, to feel lush and flush and woozy and sated. There were gasps and coos as she unfurled a lovely coiled backhand, then sighs and murmurs as she netted a forehand. Murray drew the loudest roars later in the evening. The hill was beautifully lush and green in between the rain. In the shop under No 1 Court they are selling novelty oversized tennis rackets for £600. Are we really in that place? We have the plastic strawberry punnet, the cargo short, a stagey politeness.

Cameron Norrie had to overcome two rain delays but the weather was the only thing that slowed him on the way to a convincing straight sets victory…

I had chances to finish the match before the delay but I came out a lot better the second time than I did in the first. He’s a very talented guy but I like the challenge. He saw three match points come and go before the rain returned again with Andujar serving at 5-3 down.

Murray 4-6 6-3 6-2 6-4 Duckworth: Two-time Wimbledon champion recovers from a set down to advance to the second round.

“Certainly I’m in a better place than I was last year when I played here. “I wanted that, kind of for my own peace of mind to know that the injury has healed,” Murray revealed. You knew you had seen this fight before and although Murray tempered the baying crowd by reminding them of how grateful he is to still be enjoying these opportunities at all, the exciting part is there could be a lot more to come. Murray will need to play better, especially from the start, but there were encouraging signs throughout that he is indeed fit enough for the Championships after arriving in SW19 on the back of an injury scare. It came after an unsettling start as Duckworth, the world No 77, who is without a tour win this year, deployed an aggressive game from the baseline. It was another night on Centre Court where Andy Murray played all the hits, and even had room for a new trick.

Swiatek is not the defending champion but is replacing Ash Barty in the tradition slot on Centre Court.

Auger-Aliassime meanwhile has a track record of poor results at grand slams, and this might well be one of them. Mikhail Kukushkin is extremely experienced and might just be the kind of player Brooksby does not want to see at around 12.15pm on Court 10. Muchova picked up an impressive seven of eight wins against top-20 players last year and knocked Maria Sakkari out of the French Open. And I just didn’t even think about it.” “I don’t know. “It was hard to chill out and to not do anything because I felt like adrenaline was up.

“To play on Centre Court and get a win first time, it’s amazing. Murray will need to play better, especially from the start, but there were encouraging signs throughout that he is indeed fit enough for the Championships after arriving in SW19 on the back of an injury scare.

Now every time I go back, I’m just going to have a great first experience. Today marks the return of Nadal, back for the first time since 2019 and fresh from opening up a lead in the race to finish with the most men’s grand slam titles with 22. The favourite in the women’s singles is World No 1 Iga Swiatek and she opens up her championships on Centre Court against Jana Fett, taking the traditional slot on the first Tuesday of play after defending women’s champion Ash Barty’s sudden retirement. It’s quite tough for her because for elderly people it’s most important to have a routine and, right now, there is lots of bombing and shooting going on in Odessa, in my hometown. “Of course, I’m still very, very sad about the situation that is happening right now and knowing how many people have lost their lives because of the invasion,” Svitolina told CNN Sport. “It makes me very sad. Her being half Romanian means a lot also for the Romanians. The seven-time Wimbledon champion is back in singles action after cruelly being forced to retire from her first round match at SW19 last year and the 40-year-old, third up on Centre Court, looks to ignite her comeback from a hamstring injury when she takes on Harmony Tan.

WIMBLEDON fans are furious at the number of empty seats after people queued for days for the chance to watch the tournament.

And Murray can't understand why people find it "disrespectful" when it's a viable tactic if the opportunity presents itself. Please feel free to get in touch with me as I work if you have a story or tips to share! “It looked like she wanted to be out there, that’s what it boils down to. Good morning from London. I’m Tara Fair, I’ll be bringing you all the latest developments on Wimbledon 2022. The flurry of complains comes after people queued for days for the chance to see their favourite players compete. “That's the best part. I think that's what got her over the finish line. Monday saw day one of Wimbledon 2022 kicking off on the BBC with the venue back at full capacity for the first time since COVID-19. During a much-anticipated match involving two-time champion Andy Murray and Australia's James Duckworth, viewers noticed swathes of empty seats. Sometimes I suppose it could get tiring to opponents to hear Rafa say ‘I didn’t feel my foot, I couldn’t even feel it!’" User @CromwellStuff added: "Who watched some of Wimbledon? Now considering people were queuing for days for tickets, the place looked empty? The line for Monday's entry is believed to have started at 6pm on Friday. WIMBLEDON fans are furious at the number of empty seats after people queued for days for the chance to watch the tournament.

Emma Raducanu wants an immediate return to Centre Court on Wednesday after thriving on her debut on Wimbledon's main showcourt.

Just the feeling that I get here is definitely special compared to all the other tournaments. “This place for me is still the most special, the most prestigious,” she said. If the last year hadn’t happened, then I think that any 19-year-old walking onto Centre Court would be a positive experience for you. Raducanu’s best runs have undeniably come at the Slams. At Wimbledon last year, she reached the fourth round before clinching that unlikely US Open title. I love playing on the big stages, big occasions. “I’d say big matches and big occasions are the ones that I really get the most fired up for,” she said.

- 11:00-19:00 - Live coverage - BBC Two, BBC iPlayer, BBC Sport website and app The BBC will be showing every game played across the next fortnight and but not everyone will be able to watch all the action live as it happens. Action kicked off on Day 1 with reigning champion Novak Djokovic getting off to a winning start on Centre Court. Eight time champion Roger Federer will not feature this year as he recovers from knee surgery.

Emma Raducanu cherished her Centre Court debut as she put her troubled Wimbledon build-up behind her with a first-round victory over Alison Van Uytvanck.

Court 2 Centre Court Sue Barker leads the coverage with the likes of Tim Henman, Andrew Castle and John Lloyd from the opening day. "To play on Centre Court and get a win first time, it's amazing. I knew that going in I was going to have to play well. Now every time I go back, I'm just going to have a great first experience.

Yulia Putintseva (seeded 27) is under way against Alize Cornet on Court 10 and it’s 2-2 in the first set. Raducanu, the 19-year-old US Open champion, performed admirably on her Centre Court debut to see off Alison Van Uytvanck. Murray dropped a set against James Duckworth before finding his rhythm and progressing to a second-round date with John Isner. The Italian reached his first grand slam final at the All England Club last summer, losing in four sets to Novak Djokovic, and has been the form player on grass this summer. They will be back to play the third and final set. There has been an eagerness to cling to these pegs of the pre‑pandemic summer: Glastonbury, Wimbledon, queueing endlessly for a low-cost airline seat. Sometimes, the full length net is used for singles matches (such as the Katie Swan-Marta Kostyuk singles match) but there have to be ‘sticks’ in the tramlines to make sure the net height is the same. The big names are yet to head out to the show courts but there are many singles matches under way at SW19 and I’ll keep you updated if any stories develop in them. Sakkari has been in good form this year and will be looking to make it to the second week, something she hasn’t done before. Tennis nets have different lengths depending on their use – shorter lengths for singles (with the posts in the tramlines) and full length for doubles. Maybe a reader who plays tennis at a decent standard might be able to write in and tell us if it has any bearing on performance. But then why not have all nets full length width and then you just have to change the sticks. Britain’s Paul Jubb has wasted no time in making the most of his moment in the spotlight against Kyrgios on Court 3.

STRAWBERRIES and cream at the ready, Wimbledon 2022 is FINALLY HERE!Last year's champion Novak Djokovic cruised to a first round victory despite losin.

I have pretty much beaten everyone in the draw before.” "As we saw today, I had to come off twice. “I know where my game’s at. Dan Evan's takes on Aussie Jason Kubler in his first match of the tournament, and it will be the closing game of the day. That is a blow for the popular Bulgarian and the crowd. The Italian practised with Nadal on Centre Court on Friday and even posed for a selfie. Swan has just been broken to go 5-4 down in the second so Kostyuk will serve for the second and take it to a decider. Wimbledon have wished Berrettini a speedy recovery after he quit the competition due to a bout of Covid. Sad news on Court No2 where Grigor Dimitrov has had to call it a day in the second set. The Queen's quarter-finalist took the second 6-3 against Laaksonen and it's on serve early in the third. Kyrgios has just branded a line judge a "snitch" for walking up to the chair umpire and telling her something mid-game. And the 22-year-old Hull ace showed his composure with a comfortable hold to seal the opener.

Roger Federer is missing Wimbledon 2022 due to a knee injury which has kept him out of action for the best part of a year.

The 36-year-old, who won twice at SW19 himself, said: “We shared lot of important things together. We knew before that an operation of this nature would require a long break. He admitted back in November that he would be unlikely to make Wimbledon this year, telling Swiss newspaper 24 heures: “And that is not a surprise.
