If you want to catch every match of Wimbledon and don’t currently subscribe to ESPN+, cable or a live TV streaming service, the tournament will air free on BBC iPlayer in the U.K., and in Australia, a majority of the action is streaming free with ads on 9Now.

Don’t live in either of those places? Don’t worry. You can still stream like you do with the help of a VPN. A VPN (virtual private network) helps protect your data, can mask your IP address and is perhaps most popular for being especially useful in the age of streaming. Whether you’re looking to watch Friends on Netflix (which left the U.S. version of the streamer back in 2019) or tune in to the next F1 race without a cable package, a VPN can help you out. Looking to try a VPN for the first time? This guide breaks down the best VPN options for every kind of user.
