Play is underway! And Medvedev has questions...
Follow live coverage of the opening day at SW19 as champions Carlos Alcaraz and Barbora Krejčíková begin their title defences Getty Images The 2025 Wimbledon Championships are up and running, with two-time defending men's champion Carlos Alcaraz currently in action on Centre Court. Alcaraz took the first set but veteran Fabio Fognini has since claimed the second. Meanwhile, women's world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka is already into the second round — beating Canada's Carson Branstine 6-1, 7-5 on No. 1 Court. U.S. 12th seed Frances Tiafoe dispatched Elmer Møller in straight sets but men's ninth seed Daniil Medvedev is out after losing in four to Benjamin Bonzi, while Stefanos Tsitsipas (24) retired with a back issue after two sets against Valentin Royer. Brit Emma Raducanu features later on a bright and hot first day, with little chance of rain interruptions and temperatures reaching 90F (32C). Watch: BBC (UK), ESPN (U.S.) BBC (UK), ESPN (U.S.) Get involved: live@ GO FURTHER How Wimbledon gets its grass courts, flowers and tennis balls ready for Grand Slam action Clearly we should get tucking into the tennis too — because the action is underway! Daniil Medvedev is among the first to get going, as the ninth seed prepares to tackle Benjamin Bonzi on Court 2. He has a lot of questions for the umpire at the net too, mostly revolving around towels, balls, whether he will need a water bottle and is there still water available. Makes you think how disorientating it must be when you begin at a tournament. As for the stars, former footballer and Inter Miami owner David Beckham is here today. Apparently he's looking 'dapper' according to the broadcast I have on beside me, which seems to be the default description for him these days. And for the record, he definitely does. I will endeavor to find photo proof before the day is done. It's not quite the shops opening on Black Friday, but it's still a big point in the Wimbledon fortnight. The gates are open and the spectators are filtering in. Getty Images Tennis (and sporting) legend Roger Federer has won the most men's singles titles of all time here. His eight championships include an astounding five in a row from 2003 to 2007, and six in seven years with his 2009 title — before more in 2012 and 2017. Among those with seven, Novak Djokovic could draw level with Federer if he succeeds this year. He currently sits alongside Pete Sampras and William Renshaw. If Carlos Alcaraz wins his third trophy in a row at SW19, only nine men in history and five in the Open Era will have won more. Getty Images Martina Navratilova is peerless when it comes to women's singles titles at Wimbledon. The Czech-American has nine of them, with an astounding six straight from 1982 to 1987. Helen Wills Moody is second on eight with Serena Williams, Steffi Graf and Dorothea Lambert Chambers all on seven. Among current players, only two-time champion Petra Kvitová (2011, 2014) has won more than once on the hallowed grass of Centre Court. GO FURTHER Two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova will retire from tennis after U.S. Open Getty Images No doubt everyone out there is wondering what the weather is going to be like for the opening day at Wimbledon. Well, the good news is it's looking dry — and HOT. The temperature is already at 27C (81F) in south London and is likely to hit a high of 32C (90F) come the midday sun, which is likely to be broken by only occasional cloud. There will be a mild southerly wind, with basically zero chance of rain. No need for those roofs today, guys! Getty Images There is some serious history behind the trophies received by the two Wimbledon singles champions. The men's singles trophy was first presented in 1887 — cup-shaped and standing 18 inches high, with a diameter of 7.5 inches. A for the women's singles trophy, that was first presented a year earlier — dish-shaped with a mythological theme, it is known as the Rosewater Dish or Venus Rosewater Dish. The winner of both will receive a three-quarter size replica bearing the names of all past champions. Getty Images This year at Wimbledon the singles champions take home a pretty tasty prize pot. Both the men's and women's singles champion will win an equal prize pot of £3million each.

You will find the full order of play for today below. In the meantime we have an hour to continue the build-up, and we will take you through some of the seedings and contenders. Thanks again for joining us. If the fun in Paris last month is anything to go by, this is going to be a great ride. Getty Images Wimbledon begins today and the draws for the men's and women's singles are intriguing, while also throwing up some blockbuster first-round matches. Novak Djokovic goes in pursuit of his 25th Grand Slam title, while defending champion Carlos Alcaraz seeks the French Open, Queen's and Wimbledon treble that has not been done since 2008. On the women's side, world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka enters as favorite after missing two recent editions, while 2023 champion Markéta Vondroušová is in form and ready to rekindle her fire in south-west London. The Athletic's tennis writers, Matthew Futterman and Charlie Eccleshare, analyze the match-ups and offer some of their picks for the best matches of the opening days. The Athletic We'd love to hear from you ahead of the 2025 Championships getting underway in little over an hour. Who do you think is going to win this year? Who will be the most successful British and American players? And is Wimbledon your favourite Grand Slam of the season? Let us know by emailing live@ Getty Images Arguably, it's the most famous tennis court in the world. It is the main showpiece court, only ever used at the Wimbledon Championships (apart from the 2012 London Olympic Games), and has a capacity of 14,979. Distinguished guests sit in the Royal Box, with a 3,000-tonne retractable roof installed in 2009. The inscription above the entrance quotes Rudyard Kipling's poem 'If': 'If you can meet with triumph and disaster, and treat those two impostors just the same.' Wise words for anyone playing on it. Neil Stubley, Wimbledon's head of courts and horticulture, is the man in charge of keeping the tennis courts pristine as he enters his 30th tournament. He and his team of 18, which grows to 31 during the event, are responsible for 'anything that grows' — including weeds. 💬 'Every day we test the ball bounce height and the hardness of the surface,' Stubley says. 'If they're getting too hard, we can add a little more water. If they get too soft, we can just hold off on irrigation and let Mother Nature dry it out a little more. 'Last week, it got its final liquid fertilizer on to give it the right color that we need.' GO FURTHER How Wimbledon gets its grass courts, flowers and tennis balls ready for Grand Slam action Getty Images At the All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC), better known as Wimbledon, grounds staff have 88 grass courts across three venues to maintain. The 18 match courts at Wimbledon are quiet until the tournament starts, but three miles to the north west, the 34 courts at the qualifying tournament complex in Roehampton are full of players bidding to make the main draw in the build-up to the main event. Then there are the 16 extra practice courts at AELTC Community Centre in Raynes Park, and the 20 practice courts at Wimbledon itself, which have all been in use since June 23. Plus there's the added task of maintaining flowers in borders and general planting around the site. It's a mammoth task. Show courts.

LeBron James opts into Lakers contract amid retirement, trade rumors
1 of 5 | Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (L) is set to become the first player in NBA history to play for 23 seasons. File Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo June 30 (UPI) -- LeBron James opted into the $52.6 million player option in his contract to remain with the Los Angeles Lakers next season, agent Rich Paul said. Paul announced James' decision Sunday night in an interview with ESPN. When he takes the court next season, the Lakers' No. 23 will set an NBA record for the most seasons played -- 23. Although James will again be under contract with the Lakers, Paul told ESPN that his client wants to play for a contender and suggested that a move to another team -- potentially through a trade -- remains a possibility. "LeBron wants to compete for a championship," Paul told ESPN. "He knows the Lakers are building for the future. He understands that, but he values a realistic chance of winning it all. "We are very appreciative of the partnership that we've had for eight years with [Lakers owner] Jeanie Buss and [president and general manager] Rob Pelinka and consider the Lakers as a critical part of his career. "We understand the difficulty in winning now while preparing for the future. We do want to evaluate what's best for LeBron at this stage in his life and career. He wants to make every season he has left count, and the Lakers understand that, are supportive and want what's best for him." James, 40, said in December that he believes he could retain his elite playing level through age 47, but would retire before then. He was recorded on social media last week, while out with his wife, Savannah, saying that she wants him to "retire in the next year or so." He told reporters in May that he didn't know how long he would extend his Hall of Fame career, citing that he didn't "know what the [Lakers] roster will look like." Center Jaxson Hayes is among Lakers players set to hit free agency next week. Sources told The Athletic and ESPN on Sunday that forward Dorian Finney-Smith, who joined the Lakers in a midseason trade, declined his player option for 2025-26. The Lakers also announced earlier this month that Mark Walter was entering an agreement to acquire majority ownership in the team from the Buss family. James, who joined the Lakers with a four-year, $154 million contract in 2018, appeared in 419 games through his first seven seasons with the Western Conference franchise. He made the playoffs five times during that span, including their title-winning run in 2019-20. James averaged 24.4 points, his fewest since his rookie season, over 70 appearances in 2024-25. He also logged 8.2 assists and 7.8 rebounds per game for the Lakers, who went 50-32, but suffered through a first-round playoff exit. The four-time champion, four-time MVP and 21-time All-Star and 21-time All-NBA selection, who broke the NBA scoring record in 2023, is closing in on several other major benchmarks, including moves up the all-time assists, rebounds, steals and 3-pointers leaderboards. With his 2025-26 player option included, James will have made more than $580 million in on-court salary for his NBA career. LeBron James' career: NBA, championships, records LeBron James when he was a high school senior playing basketball at the James A. Rhodes Arena in Akron, Ohio, on February 14, 2003. James signed his first NBA contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers that same year. Photo by Tom Cammett/UPI | License Photo

Deandre Ayton accepts Trail Blazers contract buyout, will become free agent: Sources
By David Aldridge, Jason Quick and John Hollinger Center Deandre Ayton accepted a contract buyout from the Portland Trail Blazers and will become a free agent, league sources said. The specific nature of the buyout will be finalized after Ayton, 26, clears waivers, a league source said. Ayton, the 2018 No. 1 draft pick, averaged 14.4 points and 10.2 rebounds per game with Portland last season, his second with the franchise after it acquired him from the Phoenix Suns in 2023's three-team Damian Lillard trade. Advertisement The parting between Ayton and the Trail Blazers was long in the works. Tardiness, tantrums and injuries marred his two-year tenure in Portland, which contributed to the team using its last two first-round picks on centers in the NBA Draft. The Blazers were unable to unload Ayton's expiring $35.6 million salary. ESPN was first to report the news of the buyout. In 95 games with Portland, Ayton averaged 15.7 points and 10.7 rebounds, but he was unreliable on and off the court. On the court, he was sometimes benched due to effort, leading to sideline and locker room tantrums. Off the court, he received multiple fines for being tardy to practices. He also blew off some rehabilitation appointments while recovering from knee and calf injuries. Ayton was a loud and light personality in the locker room and seemed well-liked by his teammates, but it was clear the organization didn't view him as a building block for their rebuild. The Blazers used their No. 7 draft pick on center Donovan Clingan last year, and they selected Chinese center Yang Hansen with the 16th pick this year. Billups said Friday that the 7-feet-2 Yang is so talented that he will, without question, play this season, even though he is only 20. The Trail Blazers also have veteran Robert Williams III and Duop Reath at center. Over the past two seasons, Williams has appeared in only 26 games because of knee injuries, while Reath averaged 4.2 points in 46 games last season. In negotiating Ayton's buyout, Portland will lose out on the possibility of dangling his expiring contract in any trade talks during the season. Depending on the size of the haircut in his buyout, the move likely affords the Blazers the ability to use their entire non-taxpayer mid-level exception to bring in another guard or wing who can shoot.
