Andy Murray, Rafael Nadal, Simona Halep, and Venus Williams are among the players who will be in action on Monday. Television coverage of the day’s matches will begin at 7 a.m. ET, and will be carried by ESPN in the United States.
Live streams of all courts on Monday will also be provided via WatchESPN in your browser or via the ESPN App on various connected devices. A total of 31 seeded singles players will be in action on Day 1.
Murray is the top seed on the men’s side, and he’ll open against Alexander Bublik. He’s been struggling in recent tournaments, and is not among the favorites despite being ranked first in the world. Roger Federer is the true favorite after he skipped the clay court season to keep himself fresh for Wimbledon.
Federer isn’t in action on Day 1, though. Nadal, winner of the French Open, will face John Millman in his opening match. Stan Wawrinka, Marin Cilic, and Kei Nishikori are the other top-10-seeded men in action, and they will face Daniil Medvedev, Philipp Kohlschreiber, and Marco Cecchinato, respectively.
On the women’s side, Halep is the second seed and she will open against Marina Erakovic. Halep came very close to winning her first slam in Paris, but fell short to Jelena Ostapenko, then unseeded. Ostapenko is the No. 13 seed for Wimbledon, and she’ll open her Wimbledon bid against Aliaksandra Sasnovich.
Below is all you need to know to watch Monday’s action, and below that is a list of singles matches containing seeded competition.
