Wimbledon 2025 is in full flow in London, upholding its status as one of the world's most elite tennis events. With international stars dominating the court, the tournament continues to be a popular event for Londoners and tennis-fans alike.
However, attending the tournament can be expensive, with seats at centre court starting at £70, but can rise to up to £240 during the finals. You can also buy Ground Pass tickets, which will give you access to all of the courts apart from Centre Court and courts 1-4, and cost between £15 and £27 per ticket. However, due to its popularity, tickets will first go on sale through a public ballot, giving people an equal chance to get tickets.
So, if you find that you've already spent a lot of money to get into the event, you'll be happy to know that you could be able to snag some food and merch for free, if you know where to go.
To help, one woman named Kaya took to TikTok to share the secrets on how she managed to snap up strawberries, ice cream, merch and a Wimbledon-marked tennis ball without having to spend a penny.
"Here's everything I got for free at Wimbledon 2025," she said at the start of her video, as she was seen munching on some strawberries. She then jumped in to her list.
Free Spin the Wheel try with prizes
If you're feeling lucky, Kaya's first tip was to head to the Champion's Corner, as all Barclays members can play a round of Spin the Wheel in the hope of snagging some good prizes that could be worth hundreds of pounds.

"At the Champion's Corner, as a Barclay's card member, you can play Spin the Wheel," she said. "And, if you're lucky, you can win one of the many prizes, which actually includes Babolat rackets - how cool"
She then happily held up a keychain as she revealed: "I managed to get this keychain, which I was actually super happy about as I was genuinely going to buy it. So thank you Barclays."
Free postcard

If you find yourself walking around, waiting for the next match to start, Kaya said that there are free postcards to pick up, which you can then use to collect autographs from the different players.
"You can also pick up a postcard and stand at the viewing platform, where you can watch the players train for their matches. And, if you're lucky, you may get to meet them and get stuff signed," she said.
"I was incredibly lucky to meet who I met," she added. "However, nothing is guaranteed, and please be respectful to the players and their time. They are not obligated to stop."
Free strawberries and cream
Strawberries and cream has a long association with Wimbledon. The club itself describes strawberries and cream as "a true icon of The Championships", so obviously they've got to serve it at the tournament.
While a serving of strawberries and cream will set you back £2.70, Kaya revealed that Barclays members can snap them up for free.
"You can also get free strawberries and cream if you have a Barclays account," she said before explaining how to do it. "So you just have to go to your app and get a QR code to scan - there you go.
"I went for the plant based [cream], obviously. They were so good. Although it's literally just strawberries and cream. But it was really nice and free."
Free ice cream and keychain
Since the last days of Wimbledon are expected to be hot and sunny, it's important to keep yourself cool and hydrated. And what better way to do this than by a free serving of ice cream?
To collect your free ice cream, Kaya explained: "From the Champion's Corner, if you head towards the hill and up the stairs to the Amex experience, as an American Card Express member, you can get a free ice cream."
She was then seen eating her ice cream in the next clip as she said: "This was vegan and it was really nice."
At the same area, Kaya also revealed that American Express is offering people to play a game where you have the chance to win a keychain.
Free Wimbledon tennis ball
Finally, Kaya also showed of her Wimbledon 2025 tennis ball that she also managed to get for free by being an Amex member.

"And also, down in the Southern Village, you can actually pick up a free Wimbledon tennis ball. American Express themed, obiviously," she said as she showed the green tennis ball with "Wimbledon 2025" written on it, along with American Express being written underneath.
And, since the last few days of Wimbledon took place as the summer's third heatwave hit the country, Kaya also shared her delight after having been given a free and-help paper fan outside of Southfields station, as well as an Esquire newspaper.

Tips to age well There are a number of habits you can take up to care for your health and wellbeing as you age. Age UK shared the following tips: Do things that you enjoy everyday - whether that's cooking, seeing friends or enjoying a good book Stay hydrated - drink six to eight cups of water a day Eat plenty of fruit and veggies to lower your risk of heart disease and certain cancers, have beans, pulses, fish, eggs and meat to repair your body after injury, starchy carbs for energy dairy to help keep bones strong Manage long-term health conditions to prevent them progressing or having a greater impact on your health Quit smoking and reduce alcohol intake to no more than 14 units a week Make mental health a priority and get treatment for it, as it can also impact physical health Make sure you're getting quality sleep Keep socialising - and call a friend or loved one if you can't make it out the house Be physically active to lower the risk of depression and dementia, heart disease, stroke, Parkinson's and some cancers 'I feel like it's really contributed to my skin feeling fresh and smooth.'

However, she now makes sure to wear it every day, as it is one of the best things you can do to stop your skin from ageing prematurely. No botox Christie has revealed that she is not a fan of Botox, due to bad experiences she has had with the cosmetic procedure. Speaking about her negative experience with Botox during an appearance on The Tamron Hall Show, she said: "I don't Botox. I like the movement. "I like to be able to have expression and move my face. "I only did Botox once and had a bad experience with it and I never did it again." She added that the procedure gave her a "droopy eyebrow". Fillers and laser Despite being anti-Botox, Christie has revealed that she has tried out other cosmetic procedures, such as filler and lasers. However she aims to maintain a "natural" looking face. "I mainly do lasers,' she said in an interview with People. "I don't try to get rid of every wrinkle. "I've dabbled with fillers and I go to my doctor in the city,' she added. "I don't want to look "done" or anything." Healthy diet Christie has been a vegetarian since she was just 13, and eats a breakfast of raw oats with berries and nuts every day. "For lunch, I go into greens and do a salad, then add a protein like a bean or nuts," she told The Cut. "Dinner is more of the same except maybe I'll put my vegetables on a bean pasta, rice, grain, or quinoa." She also limits her sugar intake, but is strongly opposed to dieting. Fitness regimen Christie is a huge fan of fitness, particularly spin classes and cycling. "When I'm in a place where I can get on a bicycle and just go for a long ride, I love doing that, but I also like to jump on a Peloton or to take a spin class of some sort,' she told People. "I do a 20- or a 30-minute class several days a week, and then I'll do some of the floor exercises and arm and core [the other days]". She also previously shared her love of yoga with Women's Health. "Every time I'm doing it, I've got both dogs aiming for my face, trying to give me kisses," Christie said. 6 Christie eats a healthy vegetarian diet Credit: Instagram 6 The model has been wowing fans since the 1970s Credit: Splash

Russian TikTokers forced to issue grovelling apology by Putin after filming video at oil depot blown up by Ukraine
TWO Russian TikTokers were forced to issue a grovelling apology after filming in front of a flaming Russian plant following a Ukrainian strike. Social media influencers Dasha Vladimirovna 21, and Karina Evgenyevna, 19, were filmed rapping in front of the Rosneft-Kubannefteprodukt oil depot in Sochi. 7 Russian zoomers Dasha Loskutova, 21, and Karina Oshurkova, 20, and their unidentified male friend were paraded in a Russian court today Credit: East2West 7 Then they were forced to record an apology Credit: East2West 7 They were seen filmed rapping in front of burning oil depot hit by a Ukrainian drone in Sochi Credit: East2West The energy plant was on fire after being hit by a massive Ukrainian drone attack, which is understood to have infuriated Moscow. But the TikTok stars were seen glorying in the Ukrainian strike, which the Russian air defences failed to prevent. The video was posted to a track called Crimson Dawn by singer Endshpil, a Russian rapper. Both influencers were immediately arrested. New footage has since emerged showing the two TikTokers being paraded in a Russian court. Then they were forced to record an apology saying: 'We sincerely apologise for filming the video against the backdrop of a fire and posting it on a social network. 'We did not post the video with the intention of insulting or offending anyone. 'We pledge not to make such mistakes again. We are ready to be punished under Russian law.' A police "wanted" notice was issued after the initial TikTok video made rounds on the internet. It said: "During Internet monitoring, a publication was found showing two girls filming a video against the backdrop of a fire in Sochi. Oil depot EXPLODES as Ukraine launches major strike on Russian city of Sochi "The police have initiated an investigation, measures are being taken to identify the girls, and their actions will be legally assessed." Later it was confirmed that the duo had been detained, and there were calls from pro-war outlets for them to issue a public apology over the stunt close to Sochi airport. Both of them were fined £280 for filming near the burning site. Moscow takes an increasingly aggressive, extreme stance against social media stunts seen as highlighting Ukraine's successes in the war. A Ukrainian outlet Pravda Gerashchenko mocked: 'Russian zoomers are happy about the burning oil depot in [Sochi] - a new location for selfies. 'Ukrainian defence forces will definitely try to create as many such locations as possible.' Ukraine's general staff on Monday confirmed it had carried out a drone attack on a fuel depot of Sochi airport in southern Russia on Sunday. Kyiv has regularly hit Russian oil and gas infrastructure in response to attacks on its own territory since Russia began its offensive in February 2022. 7 A police bulletin circulated in Sochi calls for the public to help locate two young women filmed rapping in front of a burning oil depot Credit: East2West 7 Ukrainian drones hit Rosneft oil depot in Sochi Credit: East2West 7 Firefighters working at a fuel depot outside Sochi after an overnight Ukrainian drone attack Credit: AFP 7 The drone strike came as Russian forces bombed a key bridge used to transport military logistics in the Ukrainian frontline city of Kherson Credit: Getty "Sochi suffered a drone attack by the Kyiv regime last night," the governor of Russia's Krasnodar region, Veniamin Kondratiev, said on Telegram. He said drone wreckage hit an "oil tank, which caused a fire" during the nighttime attack. Sochi's mayor, Andrei Proshunin, said there were no victims and that the fire was put out several hours later. He confirmed that the fire had been caused by a nighttime drone strike, with debris hitting an oil tanker. Local officials said 90 firefighters were involved in bringing the blaze under control. The drone attack came as Russian forces bombed a key bridge used to transport military logistics in the Ukrainian frontline city of Kherson. Footage shows a Russian airstrike destroying the key road crossing on the Dnipro River after dropping two guided bombs over the weekend.
