One of the oldest tennis tournaments in the world, the Queen's Club Championships can trace its history back to 1881 - when it was called the London Athletic Club Open Tournament and was held at Stamford Bridge.

It moved to its current location in 1890 and was known as the London Grass Court Championships before taking the name of its venue in 1977.

In 1973 the women’s event was discontinued, but returned this year, where qualifier Tatjana Maria beat four top 15 players to unexpectedly take the title.

It’s now the turn of the men to take to the court, with world number two Carlos Alcaraz and British number one Jack Draper in the draw.

And while Andy Murray, who won a record five singles titles between 2009 and 2016, is no longer playing, there is some Scottish interest, with Dalkeith-born Jacob Fearnley playing his second round match today (Thursday).

And if that’s not enough, he’s also teaming up with honourary Scot Cameron Norrie (his dad’s from Glasgow) in the quarter final of the men’s doubles.

Here’s everything you need to know about today’s action.
