With the French Open and Novak Djokovic's winning streak in the rear-view mirror, the most prestigious tennis tournament in the world awaits: Wimbledon 2011.

The London tournament is right around the corner. Seeding will be announced on Thursday, June 16th, and the draw will be announced on June 17th.

The 125th Wimbledon Championships begin on Monday, June 20th. The last match day will be Sunday, July 3rd, when the Men's final takes place on Centre Court.

The matches will be televised on the BBC in 3D for the first time.

In Canada, the Wimbledon Championship is traditionally broadcast on TSN. In the U.S., complete coverage will be provided by NBC and ESPN.

Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams will look to repeat as champions. Nadal has won Wimbledon two of the last three years, and Williams is a back-to-back champion.

National favorite Andy Murray will try to win his first major, while Roger Federer and Djokovic also try to unseat Nadal.

Williams is on the comeback trail after a freak injury at a restaurant last year. She hasn't played a match since her Wimbledon victory.

Should Williams be fit to play, she will have to fend off the likes of Caroline Wozniacki, Li Na, Maria Sharapova, Kim Clijsters, among others.
