as you said, if you think about knock—about —— novak djokovic at these championships, tim henman ande better than the player we saw in his mid—20s, staggering when you consider what he has already achieved. carlos alcaraz, the opposite end of the spectrum at 20 years old, is in his first wimbledon final. if you think about the matchup between these two at the french open recently in that semifinal, where they went toe to toe for a while, and that match was a cracker until alcaraz started to cramp and he got tight, and in the end he lost that match fairly comfortably for djokovic, that when, and alcaraz said it was too much playing the giant that is djokovic. he feels more ready to face him now. yet, when you think, for alcaraz, this will only be his fourth tournament on grass. djokovic's numbers, of course, incredible. it is a decade since he lost on centre court. he is the favourite but lots of people have the feeling here that alcaraz could really make a much of it. ~ alcaraz could really make a much of it. . , ., , alcaraz could really make a much of it. 1 , . , ., , it. we shall

we will be speaking to tim henman as well.dow grass, strawberries and cream, the queue. one of the big things is the weather. carroll, are we going to get plenty of it on the opening day? there will be quite a bit of it and some showers as well. you may have seen henman hill looking empty, also known as murray mound. later this will be packed as novak djokovic defends his title, noticeably the greatest male player of all—time. behind me you can see 2023 in all its splendour. it changes over the every year but always thrilling to see it for the first time. the sun is beating down. many others today, it will be sunny. the forecast for wimbledon is mixed. today will be breezy. looking at some time to start the day but then there will be showers into the afternoon, particularly around three p m to 5pm. temperatures up to 18, it may be 19 degrees. for all of us, the forecast is one of sunshine and showers and also a fresh breeze, especially across england and wales. we have low pressure anchored toward scandinavia and we are pullin

really affected tim henman and he change everything henman and he change everything he talks about hes my year to win the grand slam. now this is different. it's slightly different because it's the it's much earlier in the tournament. murray tournament. but andy murray should been given should really have been given the opportunity. believe, on the opportunity. i believe, on on night to finish on thursday night to finish off, go yeah, it go and play tsitsipas yeah, it was curfew that did for him. was the curfew that did for him. lots of speculation around, you know, of conjecture around know, lots of conjecture around whether the local residents should just for two weeks a yean should just for two weeks a year, just give up on the the year, just give up on the on the on the the curfew. on the on the curfew. >> it's easy to say it's the roof that would keep most. >> yeah, well, that's the whole point. that the whole point point. that was the whole point of we could play until of the roof. we could play until until we until whenever, whenever we wanted. he's he's been wanted. but look,

tim henman — now on the board of the all—england tennis club — expressed his annoyance.5,000+ people coming to your grounds and you've got 18 fields of play, it's not easy. so, yeah, it would be important, i think, for everyone to understand the facts and where these people have come from. but, yeah, it's frustrating. we've had enough disruptions with the weather, but to get a disruption like that, as well, is — you know, is disappointing. the government has now decided to step in — with the home secretary chairing a meeting yesterday with representatives of various sports organisations to try to prevent further disruptions. of particular concern is this weekend's silverstone grand prix, which was targeted last year. wimbledon is just the latest in a wave of direct—action protests this summer by the environmental group who disrupted the ashes, the world snooker championships, and the rugby union premiership final. but the group shows no sign of letting up — issuing a statement from one of the protesters, accusing the government of courting disaster and ignoring scientist
