Get ready to be enthralled by the seasoned commentators at Wimbledon this season. Among the many highlights of the most prestigious tennis event, the anticipation of who is going to deliver prime insights sparks the most curiosity in fans. But the wait is over! ESPN has revealed its commentator lineup for the big day. Let’s explore some of the biggest names who are taking the front seat in the commentator’s box today!
The Wimbledon Championships is undoubtedly the oldest and most significant tennis tournament of the year! Therefore, apart from playing, covering the event with their special commentary is the dream of several tennis experts. But only a few get the pass. Among those, Chris Evert and Chris Fowler have secured their spot as the main commentators for the women’s final match today.
While Jasmine Paolini and Barbora Krejcikova will show their fierce battle on the ground, behind the mic will be Evert, who has made her most awaited comeback (after ovarian cancer recovery earlier this year) at Wimbledon. A three-time Wimbledon champion herself, Evert has been entertaining audiences with her tennis analysis since 2011, when she first joined hands with ESPN. Over the past decade, Evert has rocked the commentary box, and she is not done yet! Next up is Fowler.
