Britons Jack Draper and Katie Boulter continue their Wimbledon preparations this week – and you can follow the action live on the BBC.

Draper will return to Queen’s Club, where he reached the quarter-finals last year, as the second seed after reaching a career-high of fourth in the world rankings.

The 23-year-old is joined by two-time defending Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz, who recently recorded a stunning comeback victory over Jannik Sinner in the French Open final.

Boulter will compete at the Nottingham Open, where she is the two-time defending champion, alongside compatriot Sonay Kartal.

World number two Alcaraz, who won Queen’s in 2023, begins his campaign against fellow Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.

Draper, one of five Britons in the main singles draw, opens against American Jenson Brooksby.

He is joined by rising star Jacob Fearnley, Cameron Norrie, Billy Harris and Dan Evans.

World number nine Holger Rune, Australia’s Alex de Minaur and Miami Open champion Jakub Mensik are also set to compete.

However, defending champion Tommy Paul withdrew with injury, as did last year’s runner-up Lorenzo Musetti and two-time winner Matteo Berrettini.

In the doubles draw are Wimbledon champions Henry Patten and Finnish partner Harri Heliovaara, along with French Open runners-up Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski.

Boulter, who beat Emma Raducanu and Karolina Pliskova back-to-back last year to defend her Nottingham title, begins her title defence against Lulu Sun.

She is joined this year by Kartal, who has had a rapid rise up the rankings after clinching her maiden WTA Tour title last September.

Teenager Hannah Klugman, one of the most highly-rated British juniors, has been given a main-draw wildcard and will start against fourth seed Yulia Putintseva.

Britons Harriet Dart and Francesca Jones will play each other in the first round, while fellow wildcard Mingge Xu faces Katie Volynets.

Two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova will also feature, having used her protected ranking to enter the draw as she continues her return from maternity leave.

Brazil’s Beatriz Haddad Maia, who won the event in 2022, is also included, as is 2012 US Open runner-up Leylah Fernandez and last year’s Wimbledon quarter-finalist Sun.

There will be a live, uninterrupted stream of the main court at Queen’s every day on the BBC Sport website and app and BBC iPlayer.

BBC 5 Live will provide regular updates, with tennis correspondent Russell Fuller leading live radio commentary of the final on BBC 5 Live.

There is also coverage on BBC One and BBC Two, alongside select live text commentaries on the website and app.
