Wimbledon 2025 Preview: Who Will Triumph on the Grass?

The grass is cut, the strawberries are fresh, and the world’s finest tennis players are set to descend upon the All England Club. Wimbledon 2025 is upon us – and it promises to be one of the most competitive editions in recent memory. Whether you’re a seasoned punter or a casual fan looking to get involved, now’s the time to explore the tennis markets and bet on Wimbledon with Sportingbet.

The main draw begins on Monday 30 June, with the women’s and men’s finals taking place on Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 July, respectively. Qualifying takes place from 23 to 26 June, and wheelchair and junior draws round out the tournament in the second week.

Held at the historic All England Lawn Tennis Club, Wimbledon remains tennis’s most prestigious Grand Slam, played on iconic grass courts that have hosted legends since 1877.

When it comes to tennis betting, Wimbledon’s unique surface levels the playing field – and this year’s draw is brimming with talent.

Carlos Alcaraz, fresh off his second consecutive Roland Garros title, is chasing a historic third straight Wimbledon crown. His electric shot-making and fearless grass-court play make him a clear frontrunner.

But the draw is anything but easy. Novak Djokovic, a seven-time Wimbledon champion, is back and hungry for revenge after falling short to Alcaraz in the last two finals. And don’t count out Jannik Sinner, the current world No.1, whose powerful baseline game has matured into a well-rounded Grand Slam threat.

Also in the mix:

• Alexander Zverev, looking to build on his runner-up finish at the Australian Open.
  
  

• Taylor Fritz, coming off wins in Stuttgart and Eastbourne, has proven he’s a serious contender on grass.
  
  

• Casper Ruud and Lorenzo Musetti round out a talented field hoping for a deep breakthrough.

• World No. 4 Jack Draper is also one to watch with an impressive performance this year so far.
  
  

If you're eyeing the tennis odds, Alcaraz and Djokovic remain the safest bets, but Sinner and Fritz offer tantalising value in the outright market.

The women’s competition is wide open, with an elite line-up and no clear frontrunner. Coco Gauff arrives at SW19 in peak form, fresh off a Roland Garros victory and brimming with confidence. The American has yet to make it past the fourth round at Wimbledon – but 2025 could be her year.

Aryna Sabalenka, the reigning Australian Open champion and world No.1, brings a powerful grass game to the fold. Meanwhile, Iga Swiatek, with five Grand Slam titles, continues to chase grass-court glory to complete her career Slam.

Other names to watch in the tennis markets include:

• Barbora Krejcikova, the defending champion, who thrives under pressure.
  
  

• Markéta Vondroušová, the 2023 surprise winner, always dangerous despite her low seeding.
  
  

• Elena Rybakina, the 2022 champ, has the firepower to win it all.
  
  

• Qinwen Zheng, currently ranked WTA No.5, has had a standout 2025 season with multiple deep runs on grass and hard courts.
  
  

• Mirra Andreeva, the teenage sensation ranked WTA No.7, has dazzled fans with her composure and tactical maturity beyond her years.
