Wimbledon 2024 on Stan – Aussie superstar Alex de Minaur, currently ranked a career high 9th after a stellar Roland-Garros campaign, has his sights firmly set on a maiden Grand Slam trophy as the the All England Lawn Tennis Club takes centre stage.
Grand Slam Daily will be hosted by Chris Stubbs on the ground from Wimbledon alongside former tennis greats Kim Clijsters and Daniela Hantuchová, streaming exclusively on Stan Sport everyday throughout the tournament.
De Minaur will have to find a way past the dominant upper echelon of the gentlemen’s draw, with Jannik Sinner [1], Novak Djokovic [2] and reigning champion Carlos Alcaraz [3] having a firm hold on the throne. Sinner became the first ever Italian world no.1 with his run at Roland-Garros, despite fellow young sensation Alcaraz ultimately coming out on top – making the future of men’s tennis as bright as ever.
In the women’s draw, it is world no.1 Iga Świątek who will again head into Wimbledon in sublime form after taking out Roland-Garros once again and holding onto her top ranking.
20-year-old American star Coco Gauff [2] continues to hone her skills every tournament and may prove to be a worthy challenger for the Polish star.
A number of Aussies are pressing their case to qualify for the tournament this week, while an in-form Ajla Tomljanovic has received a wildcard entry into the Grand Slam. Tomljanovic continues to gain momentum after missing a year of play due to knee surgery, having defeated some big names en route to the Final at the Birmingham Classic this week.
Another Aussie legend who will be in action during the tournament is the former world no.1 and 2021 Wimbledon Champion Ash Barty, who will be taking part in an invitational doubles match alongside fellow former Aussie player and doubles partner, Casey Dellacqua.
Following the tournament, Barty will be returning to Australia to be Stan Sport’s expert tennis analyst for the Olympic Games Paris 2024.
For all the Wimbledon headlines, talking points and highlights, Grand Slam Daily returns throughout the tournament. Host Chris Stubbs will be joined by guests including four-time Grand Slam winner Kim Clijsters, former Wimbledon Quarter Finalist Daniela Hantuchová, former Aussie singles and doubles star Casey Dellacqua and tennis expert Mark Petchey.
