Today at Queen's Club Tennis Championships 2025: Prize money, Wednesday order of play, when is Jack Draper playing


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.

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 already through to the second round - he’s playing his second round match tomorrow (Thursday).
Here’s everything you need to know about the tournament, which runs from June 16-22.
