The Eastbourne International is the last chance for players to soak up grass court tennis action prior to Wimbledon.

The tournament on the south coast is an esteemed warm-up tournament ahead of The Championships, particularly for the women’s singles event which offers double the ranking points as the men’s.

Eastbourne is a designated WTA 500 event, meaning the standard of players will be higher than the men who will be scattered across a few tournaments around the world.

Five of the top 10 players in the WTA rankings will feature in this year’s tournament. The top seed will be Paula Badosa, while rising star Coco Gauff will be joined by a cluster of Grand Slam winners and Brit Harriet Dart outside of the seeded places.

In the men’s tournament, British No.1 Cam Norrie will be the top seed, joined by Jannik Sinner, Taylor Fritz and Diego Schwartzman among other well-known names.
