The Emma Raducanu vs Mingge Xu live stream is a fascinating all-British encounter that brings the opening day’s play on Court One at Wimbledon 2025 to a close. It could be a cracker. Below we have all the information on how to watch the coverage from anywhere – including FREE Wimbledon streams on BBC iPlayer.
Raducanu will find herself in the unusual position of the being the more experienced player on court for this one. The 22-year-old former US Open champion has struggled with injury since that grand slam success in 2021, but it was at Wimbledon a few months earlier that she first broke through by reaching the fourth round. She reached the last eight at Queen’s, losing to top seed Qinwen Zheng, and will hope her back will calm down and allow her to play her best tennis.
Xu, meanwhile, is where Raducanu was four years ago. The 17-year-old is starting to make her way on the WTA tour and reached the quarter-finals at the recent Birmingham Open, beating top seed Alycia Parks in the first round. Long regarded as one of the finest juniors in the UK, Xu is from South Wales but has been based out of the National Tennis Center in Roehampton more recently. The duo have never met in an official match, but will have spent a few hours hitting together in Roehampton. Who will come out on top?
Here’s how to watch free Raducanu vs Xu at Wimbledon 2025 live streams wherever you are. We’ve also listed the Wimbledon schedule further down the page.
