Wimbledon Is Two Weeks Away - Who Are You Backing After the French Open

[Quarry18]

Wimbledon starts 29 June and the draw will be made shortly. The French Open at Roland Garros wrapped in late May with the usual clay court specialists leaving centre stage for the grass court specialists. Carlos Alcaraz, who has shown he can win on any surface, is the man in form heading into the grass season. Jannik Sinner won Wimbledon in 2025 but has since shown some inconsistency. On the women's side Iga Swiatek has been dominant on clay and the question is whether she can sustain that on grass after the French Open drain.

The build-up is being slightly overshadowed by the World Cup but Wimbledon always creates its own atmosphere regardless of what else is happening. The British interest in Wimbledon never diminishes and the stakes around Andy Murray's legacy and whether any current British player can make a serious run are part of every preview. The grass court season events at Halle and Queen's give some indication of form before the main event.

Who do you think wins Wimbledon this year and which match are you most looking forward to?

[Outlaw]

Alcaraz on grass is the pick I keep coming back to. His ability to vary pace and come forward suits Wimbledon specifically and he has shown he can perform on big occasions under pressure

[CollapseState]

Sinner defending on grass is a harder task than it looked when he won last year. His game is built for hard courts and clay. The consistency he needs on grass over seven matches is a different ask

[NightOwl]

Swiatek is the pick for the women's but I want to see her play a full grass warm-up before confirming that. Her build-up to Wimbledon 2025 was similar and she delivered then

[Highland Fatima]

The grass court specialists from outside the top ten are always the Wimbledon wildcard. Someone who looked ordinary on clay and on hard courts who suddenly clicks on grass and makes a run to the second week

[David74]

The overlap with the World Cup knockout stages is going to create genuine scheduling conflicts for sports fans. The round of 32 begins June 28 and Wimbledon begins June 29. That is a painful combination for the next few weeks

[Solo Buffer]

Carlos Alcaraz vs Jannik Sinner in the Wimbledon final would be the match that defines the decade in men's tennis. Whether the draw sets that up we will find out soon

[Shane95]

The British players situation is the annual question. Someone always gets talked up before Wimbledon and the question is whether the home crowd factor converts to a run or just early round adrenaline that fades

[VidiTechnica]

Novak Djokovic's position in the draw is always worth watching. Injury history aside, a motivated Djokovic on grass is still a threat to anyone regardless of how the season has gone
