Madison Keys has been troubling the latter stages of grand slams for years but after a couple of seasons on the fringes, the American is back in form again. The 2017 US Open finalist got back inside the world top 10 earlier this and, though she's since slipped back to number 18, the 28-year-old has looked back to her best on the grass. The Eastbourne champion, beating compatriot Coco Gauff en route to the title, Keys has dropped just one set in reaching the last eight at the All England Club. That solitary blot on her 2023 SW19 copybook came in the fourth round against 16-year-old Russian prodigy Mirra Andreeva, Keys' three-set victory showing she still has the nerve and the powerful game to give even the best a test.
Aryna Sabalenka has also dropped only one set in reaching the quarter-finals. Absent last year because of the ban on Russian and Belarusian athletes at the Championships, the 25-year-old is delighted to be back at the tournament she loves most. With confidence high after winning the Australian Open and reaching the final at Indian Wells earlier this year, Sabalenka has the perfect grass court game, her big first serve helping her dictate points from the off with an aggressive baseline game. Occasionally, however, that serve can falter under pressure so the Sabalenka second serve is one area Keys will hope to target. This is her first proper test of the tournament – come through it and the second seed will feel even more confident of going all the way.
Keys and Sabalenka have met twice before, their head-to-head record level at one win apiece. Interestingly, Keys was the victory from their solitary meeting on grass, winning a three-setting at the German Open in 2021. Make sure to catch all the Wimbledon action by tuning into a Keys vs Sabalenka live stream. Scroll down for details.

How to watch the 2023 Keys vs Sabalenka live streams from anywhere with a VPN

For instance, a Brit who's currently in the U.S. could watch Wimbledon – including the Keys vs Sabalenka live stream – on BBC iPlayer, even though they're not in the U.K.
They're totally legal, inexpensive, and easy to use. We've tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices, and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.
