It may not have the same global audience as the World Cup or Super Bowl, but Wimbledon is certainly one of the most popular sporting events of the Tennis calendar. Steeped in history and one of the tournaments everyone wants to win, Wimbledon has a sizeable TV audience, and now fans of the event can watch it via the wonder that is YouTube. We’ve got more details and the live stream right after the break.

The Wimbledon tennis championships account for one of the four grand slams in the tennis season, and this year’s promises to be one of the most exciting yet.

Although we’d expect hardcore tennis fans to catch Wimbledon’s action in their TV lounge on a big screen in HD with surround, there is a way to watch the tournament’s proceedings on an iOS device.

With the official Wimbledon app for iOS, you can now follow the tournament from anywhere (provided you have an internet connection) on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad!
