Jannik Sinner may not have made it to the Wimbledon quarterfinals were it not for a mid-match injury that his Round of 16 opponent Grigor Dimitrov suffered, forcing him to retire prematurely. Dimitrov had dominated the match and was ahead by two sets when a chest injury forced him off the court. No. 1 seed Sinner will now face No. 10 seed American Ben Shelton at Wednesday’s quarterfinal match on No. 1 Court.
Here’s what you need to know to watch Sinner vs. Shelton at Wimbledon 2025, and how to watch the rest of the tournament.

How to watch Wimbledon with a VPN:
If you want to catch every match of Wimbledon and don’t currently subscribe to ESPN+, cable or a live TV streaming service, in the U.K., the tournament will air free on BBC iPlayer, and in Australia, a majority of the action is streaming free with ads on 9Now.
Don’t live in either of those places? Don’t worry. You can still stream like you do with the help of a VPN. A VPN (virtual private network) helps protect your data, can mask your IP address and is perhaps most popular for being especially useful in the age of streaming. Whether you’re looking to watch Friends on Netflix (which left the U.S. version of the streamer back in 2019) or tune in to the next F1 race without a cable package, a VPN can help you out. Looking to try a VPN for the first time? This guide breaks down the best VPN options for every kind of user.
ExpressVPN offers “internet without borders,” meaning you can catch free coverage of the 2025 Wimbledon Championships without a cable package. All you’ll need to do is sign up for ExpressVPN, change your server location to the U.K. or Australia, and then find free livestream coverage via the BBC or 9Now.
ExpressVPN’s added protection, speed and range of location options make it an excellent choice for first-time VPN users looking to stretch their streaming abilities, plus, it’s Engadget’s top pick for the best streaming VPN. New users can save 49% when they sign up for ExpressVPN’s 12-month subscription. Plus, the service offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, in case you’re nervous about trying a VPN.
