Sabalenka Advances, Alcaraz Seeks Third Wimbledon Title Amid Record Heat
Wimbledon 2025 began amid a record-breaking heatwave in London, with temperatures reaching up to 33 degrees Celsius (91 degrees Fahrenheit), the hottest start in the tournament's history. World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka comfortably advanced past Canadian qualifier Carson Branstine, using ice packs to combat the sweltering conditions, while preparing to face either Lulu Sun or Marie Bouzkova next. Carlos Alcaraz, the two-time defending men's champion, launched his bid for a third consecutive Wimbledon title on Centre Court against veteran Fabio Fognini, aiming to join an elite group of players with at least three straight wins at the All England Club. Alcaraz, who has won 29 of 32 grass-court matches, expressed confidence and focus on preparation rather than the historical significance of his attempt. The tournament activated heat rules to protect players, allowing breaks between sets when the heat stress index surpassed 30.1 degrees Celsius. The opening day also drew notable spectators such as former England captain David Beckham and ex-manager Gareth Southgate, highlighting the event's high profile.
