Where to watch Queen's Tennis in the UK
Broadcast coverage of the Queen's Club Championships will be available free on the BBC for UK fans. Early matches will air on BBC Two, and later matches, including the final, will be on BBC One.

How to watch Queen's Tennis from anywhere
Tennis fans who will be away from the UK during any notable matches are in luck. They can still access their free streaming service with a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are handy tech tools that let people temporarily alter the location on their electronic devices. They're especially popular among those hoping to keep up with their usual apps and websites while traveling abroad or looking to upgrade their cybersecurity.
NordVPN is one of the best VPNs on the market. It's fast, user-friendly (even for beginners), and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so it's no sweat if you find it's not helping you.
Where to watch Queen's Tennis in the US
In the US, coverage of the Queen's Club Championships will be available through the Tennis Channel and Tennis Channel 2 (T2). You can live stream coverage directly with a subscription through the Tennis Channel website or via a live TV service. Some of the best live TV streaming services we've tested (with Tennis Channel and T2) are DirecTV, Fubo, and Sling TV.
Fubo carries Tennis Channel and T2 in its Sports + News plan, which costs $56 a month ($10 off the first month after a five-day free trial for new customers). DirecTV carries Tennis Channel in its MySports plan, which costs $65 a month ($15 off the first two months after a five-day free trial). T2 is available for free through a MyFree DirecTV account.
Sling TV also offers T2 for free through its Sling Freestream plan. To watch the main Tennis Channel, you'll need a base plan and then the Sports Extra add-on. Sling TV prices vary by plan, and whether you're opting for a monthly plan or a short-term Sling Orange pass with the Sports Extra add-on.
Note: VPN use is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content may constitute a breach of the terms of use for some services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
