In the UK, viewership has been very poor in both the men's and women's brackets, with Linda Noskova and Jannik Sinner emerging as the new champions of this edition. However, 550,151 guests have attended this year's tournament, setting a record number at the tournament and once again showcasing its prestige, as any tennis lover wants to attend such a prestigious event at least once in their lifetime.

Global viewership at Wimbledon rises 8% compared to 2025

Besides the British fans who came to watch their favorite players, the nationalities most repeated were Americans, Germans, Italians, and Irish. Tennis in the US is flourishing, in Ireland, it's understood that due to proximity, many viewers may have decided to purchase tickets, and concerning Italy and Germany, it's enough to note that the men's final was between Sinner and Alexander Zverev to understand it all. 

Regarding global viewership, the numbers are completely different from those in the UK, as they have set another record with 138.5 million unique users, figures never seen before that represent an 8% growth from 2025. Hence, although it may have been the worst Grand Slam of 2026, the numbers continue to show that it is a tournament unlike any other.
