The path to Wimbledon heads through Eastbourne, where some of the tennis elite will bid for grass court success before heading to SW19.

The South Coast ATP/WTA 250 tournament has cemented its place as one of the final stops before the start of the Championships.

A busy Monday at Eastbourne is headlined by the return of Jack Draper, who faces fifth seed Brandon Nakashima as he looks to hit the ground running after a long injury layoff.

Defending champion Taylor Fritz returns hunting a fifth title but will face competition from a field that includes Valentin Vacherot, Rafael Jodar, and Joao Fonseca, while Jasmine Paolini and Madison Keys lead a competitive women’s field.

There will be plenty of British talent on show as well in what is set to be a fantastic week of tennis. It’s the perfect way to build excitement ahead of Wimbledon – and there is extensive coverage for free in the UK.
