How to watch Wimbledon with a VPN:

If you want to catch every match of Wimbledon and don’t currently have access to ESPN or a subscription to ESPN+, there are other ways to watch at low (or no) cost. In the U.K., much of the tournament will air for free on BBC iPlayer, and in Australia, most of the action will stream for free with ads on 9Now.

Don’t live in either of those places? Don’t worry, you can still stream as if you do with the help of a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs help protect your data, can mask your IP address, and are perhaps most popular for their usefulness in the age of streaming.

Whether you’re looking to watch The Other Bennet Sister free on BBC iPlayer or tune into Wimbledon coverage without a cable package, a VPN can help you out.
