Wimbledon

on BBC One London

Live coverage of the men's semi-finals where, this time last year, Pete Sampras and Jim Courier knocked out former championship title-holders Boris Becker and Stefan Edberg respectively, to reach their first Wimbledon final. If this year's seedings are accurate - and that's certainly not always the case - then reigning champion Sampras will meet Croatian Goran Ivanisevic in one semi-final, and former champions Michael Stich of Germany and the consistant Swede, Edberg, will meet in the other. Sampras, Stich and Edberg are currently the top rated players in the world. Ivanisevic, runner-up in 1992, is ranked fifth.
Commentators for the week are John Barrett, Mark Cox, Paul Hutchins, Ann Jones, David Mercer, Bill Threlfall, Julian Tutt and Virginia Wade.
Introduced by Desmond Lynam.
