Wimbledon 2025 live: Latest tennis scores and updates with Alcaraz and Raducanu in action

The Belarusian was heavily criticised after attributing the defeat to her own mistakes rather than Gauff’s performance, and apologised both privately and publicly for describing the match as the worst final she had played.

The two players looked to have put those hostilities firmly behind them in social media clips posted from Wimbledon on Friday, and Sabalenka was contrite in accepting the negative response her comments prompted.

She said: “I’ve always been really good with Coco. Honestly, as I said in the statement and I messaged to her, I didn’t really want to offend her.

“I was just completely upset with myself, and emotions got over me. I just completely lost it.”

The biggest fortnight of the year for British tennis will see 22 home hopefuls try their luck in the Wimbledon main singles draws, the highest number since 1988.

Jack Draper goes into the tournament as a legitimate title challenger for the first time while the remainder range from teenage debutants to veterans potentially taking their final shot at SW19.

Dan Evans broke down in tears as he revealed the toll of a difficult few months and the feelings of inadequacy that has brought.

The former British number one needed a wild card to get into Wimbledon after his ranking plummeted to 215 last month, although he will be close to the top 150 again on Monday after beating two top-20 opponents in Frances Tiafoe and Tommy Paul.

Men’s and women’s singles

Quarter-finals – £400,000

Raducanu’s match against Mingge Xu is the third and final match on Court 1 on Monday, which starts at 1pm (BST).

With one women’s singles match and men’s singles match beforehand, we can expect Raducanu on court around 5pm (approx).

Novak Djokovic refused to rule out the prospect of this year’s Wimbledon being his “last dance” at the tournament.

The seven-time champion, who has lost in the final to Carlos Alcaraz in the last two years, has recently admitted he is unsure about his future in the sport beyond this season.

Speaking before winning the title at Queen’s last week, Wimbledon defending champion, Carlos Alcaraz, opened up about the future US Open where he will be joing forces with Emma Raducanu for the mixed doubles.

He said: “She’s going to be the boss!

“The US Open came to us and gave us the opportunity to play mixed doubles and I’m super excited about it. It’s going to be great.

“I’ve known Emma a really long time and I have a really good relationship with her, it’s going to be interesting. The tournament told us about the mixed tournament and I was thinking it couldn’t be better than Emma.

“I asked Emma if she wanted to play doubles with me and yeah, I made that special request.”

Carlos Alcaraz’s first round match against Fabio Fognini is the first match on Centre Court on Monday, which starts at 1:30pm (BST).

It is tradition at Wimbledon that the defending men’s singles champion plays the first match on Centre Court on Day 1.

With only a couple of days to go before the start of Wimbledon, you might expect the 128 main-draw players to be hunkered down at Aorangi Park, getting in some practice and a feel for the grass. Those higher up the pecking order might be breaking in the surface on Centre Court.

But for a handful of WTA (Women’s Tennis Association) players, their final Friday before Wimbledon is spent a few miles away at the National Tennis Centre in Roehampton, introducing some potential stars of the future to the world of tennis.
