Iga Swiatek vs Sofia Kenin, Wimbledon 2024 1R: Where to watch, TV schedule, live streaming details and more

World No. 1 Iga Swiatek will square off against World No. 48 Sofia Kenin in the first round of the Wimbledon Championships on Monday (July 1, 2024). The duo have met each other twice on the Tour, with the Pole holding a 2-0 head-to-head advantage.

Swiatek is a force to be reckoned with on the women's circuit. After a shaky start to the season, she's chalked up title-winning runs in Doha, Indian Wells, Madrid, Rome and Paris. The Pole lifted her third consecuitive trophy at the French Open by defeating Jasmine Paolini 6-2, 6-1 in the final. She is currently on a 19-match winning streak on tour.

Meanwhile, Sofia Kenin has made a mediocre start to the season by amassing six wins from 18 matches so far, including third round appearances in the Italian Open and the French Open. She outfoxed the likes of Laura Siegemund and Caroline Garcia in Paris, but couldn't make her mark against Claura Tauson. The Dane defeated Kenin 6-2, 7-5.

Swiatek and Kenin will be making their fifth appearance at the Wimbledon Championships this year. While Swiatek registered a quarterfinal exit in 2023, Kenin reached the third round, where she lost to Elina Svitolina 7-6(3), 6-2. The American pulled off a major upset in the first round by edging past Coco Gauff, but couldn't capitalize on her win to enter the second week in London. She will be defermined to present a stern challenge to Swiatek this time around.

The Pole will be top seed at the event and is one of the favorites to make a deep run at the All England Club. Czech player Marketa Vondrousova will be the defending champion at Wimbledon this year.
