Tennis fans can watch two weeks of professional grass-court action at the Lexus Roehampton Challenger 2026, staged at the National Tennis Centre, 100 Priory Lane, London SW15 5JQ, from 17 to 29 August. The programme consists of two separate ATP Challenger 50 tournaments, bringing emerging players and established professionals to Roehampton on consecutive weeks.

Matches are free to view, making the event particularly relevant to London spectators interested in seeing ATP Challenger Tour tennis at the National Tennis Centre. Those following remotely can watch every match exclusively on Challenger TV. The LTA is also providing live scores and updated singles and doubles draws through its official event page.

Two tournaments across consecutive weeks

The Roehampton programme is divided into two competitions rather than one continuous draw:

Lexus Roehampton Challenger I: 17–22 August
Lexus Roehampton Challenger II: 24–29 August

Both are ATP Challenger 50 events. This means each week has its own tournament structure and draws, so spectators planning to follow particular players should check the relevant week rather than treating the fortnight as a single competition.

The LTA source currently links to the singles and doubles draws and live scores for the opening tournament. These are the most useful places to confirm who remains in contention and which matches are coming up as the week develops. No daily match times are stated in the supplied event information.

British players to follow in the opening draw

The first-week singles field contains 10 British players. Second seed Max Basing arrives after coming through Wimbledon qualifying to make his Grand Slam debut the previous month. Third seed Alastair Gray, sixth seed Charles Broom and seventh seed Johannus Monday are also among the leading British entries.

The home contingent additionally includes George Loffhagen, Lui Maxted and Anton Matusevich. Oliver Tarvet and Mark Ceban enter with wild cards, while Emile Hudd is listed as an alternate.

At the head of the international field is Danish top seed Elmer Moller, ranked world No. 172 in the LTA’s preview. He reached the third round of the Madrid Open ATP Masters 1000 earlier in 2026. The published names relate specifically to the opening singles event; the supplied source does not provide a corresponding player list for the second week.

Attending in Roehampton or watching online

The venue is the National Tennis Centre, 100 Priory Lane, London SW15 5JQ. The source confirms that matches are free to view but does not provide separate booking instructions, daily session times, transport guidance or accessibility information. Anyone arranging an in-person visit should therefore check the official LTA tournament page for the latest draws, live scores and practical updates before travelling.

For viewers unable to attend, Challenger TV is the LTA-confirmed exclusive broadcast destination, with all matches available to watch free.
