As the grass-court swing progresses, one of the most interesting events will be the WTA Eastbourne International, running from June 23 to June 28, 2025, in the city of Eastbourne. Our TV Guide will provide all the information to closely follow another week of competition, in the week leading up to the start of Wimbledon.
The tournament will feature defending champion Daria Kasatkina as the main favorite for the title, alongside the 2024 Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova, who will be looking to continue building rhythm on the surface before her title defense at SW19. Last year, 'Dasha' defeated Leylah Fernandez in the final to claim her first title on grass.
They will be joined by other former Grand Slam champions, all looking to gain momentum before Wimbledon. Former Roland Garros champion Jelena Ostapenko (No. 19), former Aussie Open champion Sofia Kenin, and former US Open champion Emma Raducanu will all be part of a very open main draw that could be key for anticipating who is in the best form heading into Wimbledon.
A few days before the start of the tournament, the LTA (Lawn Tennis Association) announced that the WTA prize money would be equalized with that of the men's tournament by 2029. This year, the tournament will have a total prize fund of $275,094 US dollars to be distributed (a difference of about $250,000 compared to the amount paid to men).

Carlos Alcaraz shared his impressions after Emma Raducanu attended his Queen's Club Championships match as a spectator. Just two days prior, it was announced that Alcaraz and Raducanu would team up for the US Open mixed doubles, vying for a $1 million prize. They are arguably the most anticipated team from the star-studded announcement of the US Open's mixed doubles draw. The Brit competed last week in the women's edition of the tournament—the first in 50 years—and reached the quarterfinals, falling to World No. 4 Zheng Qinwen. Raducanu was expected to attend the Berlin Ladies Open this week but announced her withdrawal a day before due to a back injury. The 2021 US Open champion used her days in London to attend the semifinals of the men's tournament, watching Carlos Alcaraz's match against Roberto Bautista Agut from the stands. Carlitos comfortably defeated his compatriot 6-4, 6-4 and advanced to the tournament final under the watchful eye of his new mixed doubles partner. In the press conference, Alcaraz was asked if he had the opportunity to speak with his partner after the match. "No. No, I couldn't. I saw on social media she came up to watch my match." "I'm just glad. I mean, I was focused on the match. I didn't see her," he added, smiling. "Just glad that she came to support, to watch my match. Yeah, I think it was great having her in the stands." He was then asked if he would like to attend one of Raducanu's matches as a spectator. "Well, it depends on the schedule, obviously. I have practices. I have matches. Yeah, I would love to, yeah, if I have time, if, you know, if everything -- if I'm at the club or I don't have anything else to do, yeah, I would love to come and watch her. I'm watching her matches from the TV every time that I can. So watching her in real could be fun," Alcaraz said. Alcaraz will face Jiri Lehecka in the final this Sunday, seeking the title he already lifted in 2023. It will be his last match before Wimbledon, where he is the two-time defending champion.
The New York Rangers are ready to make moves this summer, and according to a top insider, they're involved in trade talks with two huge names, Jason Robertson of the Dallas Stars and Martin Necas of the Colorado Avalanche. The NHL offseason is getting hot already just days after the Stanley Cup Final wrapped up. After moving Chris Kreider to the Anaheim Ducks, it appears as though the New York Rangers may be one of the most active teams in the entire NHL. According to reports, the Rangers will be involved in everything this summer, and while that doesn't mean they'll land every available player, it appears as though it means they will certainly try. Now, Rangers reporter Vince Mercogliano has revealed a bombshell report, noting that the Rangers are interested in both Jason Robertson and Martin Necas, with the team seemingly calling both Dallas and Colorado on the availability of their star wingers. It's unclear how willing either team is to listen to offers at this time, but after moving Kreider, the Rangers have the space to make a blockbuster move. With the No. 12 overall pick in this year's draft and other assets, there are some pieces they can put together to make a deal. It's no secret that 2024-25 was one of the most disappointing campaigns in New York Rangers history. With the team shaking up their core group since that point, they're going to be incredibly aggressive in the summer as they look to change things even more. Whether it's Robertson, Necas, an offer-sheet target or a big draft-day deal, don't be surprised to see a Rangers blockbuster at some point.
So the Bruins are sniffing around Jean-Gabriel Pageau again. Okay. But unless something drastic changes, this is just more of the same. Not a rebuild, not a push, just… more shuffling Look, Boston clearly isn’t rebuilding. Not with David Pastrnak and Charlie McAvoy in their prime and Jeremy Swayman locking things down in net. But if that’s the case—if the goal is still to win—then why is Don Sweeney chasing the same types of players that didn’t get it done last time? Per Islanders reporter Stefen Rosner, the Bruins have checked in on Pageau. Again. This is a guy Boston’s had on their radar for a while, but never pulled the trigger. There might’ve been a reason for that. Islanders could finally be open for business Now that Mathieu Darche has taken over in New York and the Isles somehow landed the top pick in the draft, the vibe is different. Lou Lamoriello isn’t there to keep clinging to “his guys.” Pageau could actually be available this time. Makes sense for them. He’s 31, expensive, and not part of their long-term picture. But for Boston? That’s where this gets murky. Been there, done that, still doing it We’ve seen this movie. Pageau is a solid player, kills penalties, wins faceoffs, plays hard. Cool. But this team already had three similar centers last year: Charlie Coyle, Pavel Zacha, and Elias Lindholm. And it didn’t work. They moved Coyle at the deadline. Lindholm might walk. Zacha is still there. Plugging in Pageau to repeat the cycle doesn’t solve the issue, it just restarts the clock. They need a real center, not another placeholder Unless the Bruins pull a surprise and draft a center at No. 7 who can jump right into the NHL (which almost never happens), they’re staring at a familiar depth chart. And a familiar outcome. If they want to get serious, they need to aim higher. Not tinker. If you’re on the phone with the Islanders already, here’s a thought: ask about Mathew Barzal. Will it be expensive? Of course. But he’s the kind of player who changes your ceiling, not just your middle six. Pageau’s not the issue, but he sure isn’t the fix This isn’t about trashing Jean-Gabriel Pageau. He’s a solid NHLer. But the Bruins need more than “solid.” They’re in a spot where every move has to count—and this feels like a move that doesn’t. They’ve patched this hole before. It didn’t work. Time to stop taping over the cracks and start building toward something real.
The Florida Panthers just lifted their second straight Stanley Cup — but their offseason is already a minefield with three members of their core set to enter unrestricted free agency on July 1, barring contract extensions before that date. Those players are defenseman Aaron Ekblad as well as forwards Brad Marchand and Conn Smythe winner Sam Bennett. As if Panthers general manager Bill Zito didn't have a tough enough summer ahead, Florida star Matthew Tkachuk isn’t making it easier for the franchise's honcho. "Billy, probably can't stand me because I’m the guy that tells those guys, like, 'You better make as much as you possibly can, whether that's here or somewhere else,'" Tkachuk said. "I'm a big believer, like, I'm an all-player guy. "You better go out there and get that Brinks truck backed up right in your front yard." Tkachuk wasn’t shy about encouraging his teammates to maximize their value, even if that comes at Florida’s expense. Bennett and Marchand were both pivotal in the Panthers’ title run, scoring 22 and 20 points in the playoffs, respectively. It's fair to say Marchand has turned into one of the best trade-deadline pickups in recent memory, while Bennett capped off a strong postseason with a four-goal Game 6 on his way to winning the Conn Smythe Trophy as the MVP of the playoffs. For what it's worth, and to ease Tkachuk's possible anxiety about losing any of his teammates to bigger offers, Zito confirmed on Wednesday that Florida intends to spend to the cap and try to bring everybody back. "We’re going to spend to the cap," Zito said. "The Viola family ownership has empowered us to try to do everything we can to have the best team we can. So we’re going to spend it all."
