Wimbledon radio coverage 2023: How to listen to the Championships tennis live
Your definitive guide to listening to Wimbledon 2023 on the radio this summer.
Wimbledon is up and running, and for those unable to tune in for the TV broadcasts all day, every day, BBC will boast extensive radio coverage throughout the Championships.
The tournament has been a stop-start affair so far due to rain delays and the Great British summertime weather wreaking havoc with the schedule.
However, with Centre Court and No.1 Court able to be protected from the weather by a roof each, there will be live tennis beamed across the nation every afternoon.
Fans across the nation will be keen to keep in touch with all the latest drama from SW19, and the sound of Wimbledon wafting over the airwaves is the ideal way to stay tuned in.
