Tennis fans in the U.K. can watch Wimbledon 2025 live for FREE on the BBC, including the semi-final between Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner.
Coverage will be split across free-to-air channel's BBC One and BBC Two. However, for the most extensive option, you want to head to BBC iPlayer.
To watch BBC iPlayer: Visit the BBC iPlayer website or download the app (iOS/Android).
BBC iPlayer is FREE - but you will need to create an account, have a valid U.K. postcode (e.g. SE1 7PB) and a TV license.
OUTSIDE THE U.K.? Use NordVPN to trick your device into thinking you're still in Blighty - more on that below.
How to watch Sinner vs Djokovic live streams from anywhere
Although BBC iPlayer is only available to British residents, those who are from the U.K. but visiting the likes of the U.S. and Canada can stream it through the use of VPN (Virtual Private Network).
