Wimbledon 2006

19 June, 2006 by The_Boss

Monday 26 June heralds the start of the 2006 Wimbledon Championships, and the return of BBC Sport's award-winning live coverage of the nation's favourite annual summer event.

With live and exclusive coverage on BBC One and BBC Two, BBC Radio Five Live and BBC Five Live Sports Extra, interactive through BBCi and the BBC Sport website, you can follow all the action from SW19 wherever you are – and with big outdoor screens at locations around the UK carrying action from Wimbledon, even when you're out and about.

For the first time this year, television coverage is available in HD (High Definition) format to bring viewers even closer to the action and, in another first, there will be live streaming of the interactive TV service at bbc.co.uk/wimbledon, available to broadband customers, giving viewers an incredible choice on air and online with up to five games available at any one time.

Once again, the unique ball-tracking system Hawk-Eye and the slow-motion abilities of the Tornado-cam will give viewers in-depth analysis of the intricacies of a player's game – as well as clearing up those controversial line calls.
