Serena Williams vs Angelique Kerber live stream: how to watch Wimbledon ladies’ final online
You have to admit that it’s been a funny old ladies singles competition at this year’s Wimbledon. We knew from day one that the draw was very open, but we hadn’t imagined for a minute that all top 10 seeds would be history by the time we reached the quarter-finals!
Wimbledon 2018 ladies’ final – where and when
Wimbledon 2018 is taking place at the famous All England Club in South-West London.
The ladies’ final of Serena Williams vs Angelique Kerber will take place on Saturday, July 14 at 2pm BST – that’s 9am ET, 6am PT, 11pm AEST and 3pm in Kerber’s native Germany.
But, as it should be, the two best players in the competition have reached today’s 2018 Wimbledon final. Serena Williams vs Angelique Kerber it will be and we’re here to tell you how you can get a 2018 Wimbledon live stream and watch all the tennis online from the All England Club championships for free, wherever you are in the world.
If you don’t know who Serena Williams is by now, then we’re guessing you only have a passing interest in tennis. She’s hunting down her eighth(!) Wimbledon singles crown and 40th(!!!) major title in all if you include doubles Grand Slam wins too. Despite only a recent comeback after maternity leave, Serena is the clear favorite to continue to smash records.
Trying to stop her is the remaining top seeded player Angelique Kerber, and she should not be underestimated. The German already has two Grand Slams to her name, and will be desperate to make it a hat-trick this weekend.
It’s a repeat of the 2016 final, when Serena won in straight sets – could 2018 be Kerber’s revenge? Whatever happens, we’re here to make sure you don’t miss a single serve. Check out the Wimbledon live stream options below, kick back, and watch the Wimbledon 2018 ladies’ singles final absolutely free.

How to live stream Wimbledon final in the UK for free
As always, the BBC pitched up at the All England Club to bring comprehensive coverage of Wimbledon 2018. Live coverage of the Serena Williams vs Kerber final will be broadcast on BBC One with a program starting at 1.15pm BST (in time for the 2pm start). The Beeb is even making it available in ultra HD 4K through its iPlayer app. That means as well as your TV, you’ve got the option to watch via mobile and tablet on iPlayer, completely free.
The alternative is to watch the championships on TVPlayer.com, which let’s you channel hop at your convenience and delivers a reliable, robust live stream online. And if you’re out of the country but still want the UK coverage, then we suggest using a VPN to virtually relocate to the UK – full instructions above.
Wimbledon.com and YouTube streaming
Wimbledon.com is globally live streaming action and that goes for Wimbledon’s YouTube channel. The trouble is, it doesn’t seem to have the rights to show the big action from the show courts and so won’t have the final. We reckon you should stick to the breadth of coverage offered by the BBC.
How to watch Serena Williams at Wimbledon in the US
In the US, you’ve got a couple of different TV options for catching the action: you can either tune into the Tennis Channel or ESPN. It’s worth knowing that both of these are paid-for services so in order to watch you’ll need to have a subscription.
An online-only option meanwhile, is PlayStation Vue. The Internet-based live TV service is available on streaming devices such as PS4, Apple TV, Amazon Fire, Roku, PC and Mac and mobile devices, and will be airing Wimbledon live. There’s also a 5-day free trial available to new customers if you want to check out the service.
If neither of those works for you, there’s always the VPN option for a completely free watch. By downloading and installing a VPN, you can effectively trick your computer into thinking that it’s in the UK. It’s really easy to get started with a VPN and then you can watch the whole thing on TVPlayer.com.
How to watch the Wimbledon final: Australia live stream
In Australia, you have a couple of options. Firstly, if you’re a cable-subscriber Fox is showing Wimbledon 2018 action Down Under. As this is a subscription service, you’ll need to be a paid-up member in order to watch.
But don’t worry if you’re cableless as the free-to-air Channel 7 also has coverage – both on TV and online. Failing that, use of a VPN would allow you to watch the more extensive free UK coverage.
The best way to stream Wimbledon 2018 finals in Canada
In Canada, it’s a similar deal as you’ve got fairly limited options. It will only be covered by TSN, but again, this is a subscription service.
If you want to watch for free, your best bet is to use a VPN and access the UK’s BBC coverage for no cost in the comfort of your own home.
Wimbledon 2018 final live stream in New Zealand for free
It’s good news for those in New Zealand, as free-to-air TVNZ will be showing all the action from Wimbledon 2018.
However, those wanting their fix of Sue Barker and the Beeb can also use a VPN to access the free UK coverage. The choice is yours.
Where else can I watch the Wimbledon final using a VPN?
A VPN will enable you to get a Wimbledon live stream from literally anywhere. So that obviously includes: the US, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, India, Pakistan, China, Russia, France, Spain, Japan, Italy, Poland, Germany, Mexico, Czech Republic, Austria, Thailand, Denmark, China, South Africa, Argentina, Singapore, Turkey and more!
