The clay courts had their moment at the French Open. Now we're hitting the grass for the oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament in the world — Wimbledon.

This year's Championships have already been shaken up by injury, with major players like Emma Raducanu and Rafael Nadal both ruled out. But that doesn't mean it won't be an exciting tournament. Reigning champion Novak Djokovic, now all-time leader in men's Grand Slam titles, will be looking for his fifth Wimbledon title in a row. Will Carlos Alcaraz, Casper Ruud, or someone else dethrone Djokovic? Or will he continue his reign? Only one way to find out — tune into the Wimbledon Championships 2023 from home.

Here's what you need to know to watch every match live.

When is Wimbledon 2023?

The Wimbledon Championships 2023 get underway on Monday, July 3 with the men's and women's singles. Play continues for the next 13 days continuously, wrapping up with the women's singles final on Saturday, July 15 and the men's singles final on Sunday, July 16.

Can you stream Wimbledon for free?

Tennis fans have a few options for streaming the 2023 Wimbledon Championships for free. There's just one barrier to accessing them — your location. The free live streams are based in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, which means you'll need to be located in one of these countries to obtain access. Or, of course, you can pretend to be with the help of a quality VPN.

The free Wimbledon live streams include UK-based BBC iPlayer, Australia-based 9Now, and New Zealand-based TVNZ. The BBC holds exclusive broadcasting rights for Wimbledon in the UK and serves up comprehensive coverage of every match. You can tune in live online via the BBC iPlayer or through the mobile app. All you need is a UK postcode and a VPN server based in the UK. Channel 9 has free-to-air broadcasting rights in Australia for the Championships. You can tune in through the 9Now website or mobile app with a valid Australian postal code and a VPN server based in Australia. And finally, TVNZ is a free-to-air TV channel in New Zealand. Its online streaming counterpart, TVNZ OnDemand, will offer Wimbledon Championships coverage. In order to access it, connect to a VPN server based in New Zealand and simply signup or login.

With any of the free streams, you'll follow three main steps to gain access:

1. Download and sign up for a streaming-friendly VPN (check out our top picks below).

2. Log into the VPN you selected and choose a server based in the UK, Australia, or New Zealand (depending on the stream you choose).

3. Head over to BBC iPlayer, 9Now, or TVNZ to stream the 2023 Wimbledon Championships for free.

Although all three streams are free of charge, you'll still have to pay a low monthly fee for a VPN. So, if you want to get technical, it's not totally free. Most VPN fees are fairly low, and many offer money-back guarantees, free trials, and regular discounts.

What is the best VPN for streaming Wimbledon 2023?

Best overall: ExpressVPN

Easy to use? Check. Ample support available when you need it? Check. Works well? Check. Mashable contributor Branford Shaw tested ExpressVPN firsthand and gave it the thumbs up for those main reasons. But it's also equipped with over 3,000 servers around the globe, including the UK, Australia, and New Zealand. That means you can stream Wimbledon 2023 via any of the free broadcasts above by connecting to ExpressVPN first. It's not the most affordable option, but it's currently running a deal for $6.67 per month for 15 months — that's $6.28 per month in savings.

Most affordable: CyberGhost VPN

Looking for something a little easier on the wallet? CyberGhost VPN also offers servers in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand (albeit fewer options than ExpressVPN), as well as specialized servers optimized specifically for streaming. New customers can get a 27-month plan for only $2.11 per month — that's 84% off the standard monthly fee of $12.99. It also comes with a 45-day money-back guarantee, gives users free access to ID Guard and Privacy Guard, and as Mashable shopping reporter Haley Henschel noted, "backs up its no-logs policy with annual Transparency Reports."

Best premium pick: NordVPN

You may have heard of NordVPN before, as it's one of the most popular VPNs around. A premium pick, NordVPN has advanced security features like split tunneling, built-in malware protection, and multi-hop connections. It may go above your head if you're a total newbie to the VPN world, or as Mashable shopping reporter Haley Henschel noted, it's for "users who don't need their hands held." You can currently slash 57% off a two-year Standard plan and pay just $3.49 per month.

Honorable mention: Proton VPN

Proton VPN offers a few servers in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK, so you can choose to stream any of the free broadcasts. It's not the most powerful or popular VPN on the list, but it is committed to consumer privacy, offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, and is decently priced, which makes it worth mentioning as another option.

Best streaming services to watch Wimbledon 2023

While VPN subscriptions are definitely beneficial for a number of reasons, there are other ways to stream the Wimbledon Championships that don't require one. If you want a simpler, more straightforward option and don't mind paying a monthly fee, ESPN+ will be streaming every match in the two-week span. If you want a more long-term cable alternative, you can subscribe to a live TV streamer like Sling or YouTube TV. Here are the best streaming services for watching Wimbledon 2023 in the U.S.

Most direct: ESPN+

Snagging an ESPN+ subscription for $9.99 per month is the most direct way to watch the Wimbledon Championships. You can easily align your subscription to the two weeks of the tournament, then cancel before the month is up to avoid automatic charges the next month. For $99.99, you can get an entire year of the streamer. That brings the cost down to just $8.33 per month and saves you 15%. Alternatively, if you already subscribe to Disney+ or Hulu, you can bundle ESPN+ with your existing subscriptions and pay $12.99 per month — that's 49% in savings.

Best cable alternative: YouTube TV

"YouTube TV is arguably the best premium live TV streaming service out there," Mashable shopping reporter Leah Stodart notes in her roundup of the best streaming services. It offers the most bang for your buck, the best trial period, and the widest selection of channels. A subscription gets you access to ABC, ESPN, and ESPN2 with no need for add-ons. Plus, after your 10-day trial period, the service is currently offering an $8 per month discount for your first three months. That means you'll pay just $64.99 per month instead of $72.99 per month for three months — that's plenty of time to watch the Wimbledon Championships and much more.

Most affordable cable alternative: Sling TV Blue package

If you don't have access to ESPN, ESPN2, and ABC via cable, the next best thing is a live TV streaming service. These services offer the cable benefits — like live sports and a wide variety of viewing options — but don't require a contract or a long-term commitment. They can be a bit pricey, though. Sling TV is one of the more affordable options on the market at just $40 per month and offers plenty of add-ons to personalize your viewing experience. In order to watch Wimbledon 2023 live, you'll need the Orange Package, which gives you access to ESPN and ESPN2. And for a limited time, you can score your first month for only $25 — that's a 37% discount. If you don't want to pay the full $40 for the following month, be sure to cancel before the first month is up.
