Overview

  • Kyrgios, who commentated at Wimbledon 2024 after a wrist injury, branded the BBC’s decision “very strange” and argued his wins over tennis greats offer unique analysis.
  • A knee recovery setback has again ended the Australian’s hopes of playing at this year’s Championships, keeping him off the court and out of commentary.
  • American world No.108 Chris Eubanks is set to replace Kyrgios in the BBC lineup and brings prior broadcasting roles with Tennis Channel, ESPN and TNT Sports.
  • The BBC has not yet formally confirmed its full 2025 Wimbledon commentary team for the June 30 to July 13 broadcasts on BBC One and BBC Two.
  • Kyrgios signaled he remains open to future BBC punditry, saying he hopes to contribute humour, knowledge and atmosphere to tennis coverage down the line.
