Five-time Grand Slam champion Iga Swiatek, currently the women’s No. 4 seed in the world, will face No. 19 Liudmila Samsonova at Wimbledon in a quarterfinal match airing this Wednesday morning. The women will play the first match of the day on No. 1 Court. The winner of today’s quarterfinal match will face the winner of the Miira Andreeva vs. Belinda Bencic match in the tournament semifinals.
Here’s what you need to know to watch Swiatek vs. Samsonova at Wimbledon, and how to watch the rest of the tournament.
Date: July 9
Time: 8 a.m. ET (approximate)
Location: All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club
TV channel: ESPN2
Streaming: ESPN+, DirecTV, Hulu + Live TV
Iga Swiatek and Liudmila Samsonova’s match starts at approximately 8 a.m. ET today.
The Swiatek vs. Samsonova match will air on ESPN2. Every Wimbledon match will also be available to stream on ESPN+.
If you want to catch every match of Wimbledon and don’t currently subscribe to ESPN+, cable or a live TV streaming service, the tournament will air free on BBC iPlayer in the U.K., 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.
