2023 champion Alcaraz to play Queen's in 2025

Two-time Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz will play at Queen's in 2025.

The world number three lifted the title at Queen's Club on his tournament debut in 2023 but lost to Britain's Jack Draper in the second round last year.

However, the Spaniard triumphed at Wimbledon just a few weeks later on both occasions.

"Lifting the title two years ago is what gave me the belief to go on and win Wimbledon for the first time, so it always means a lot to compete there," the 21-year-old said.

"I love playing in front of the fans in London and I hope I can have another successful summer in the UK."

The men's tournament takes place from 16-22 June, with Queen's also hosting a women's tournament in 2025 for the first time in more than 50 years.

American Tommy Paul beat Italy's Lorenzo Musetti in the final of last year's event.
