Wimbledon 2012 TV Schedule: Day-by-Day Listings for Entire Tournament

Well, it's been another exciting year of tennis. 

Heading into Wimbledon 2012, it figures to be even more exciting, as some of the premier players in the world gun for the prized Grand Slam singles title.

Adding intrigue on the men's side, Rafael Nadal has stepped up his game after getting upstaged by world No. 1 Novak Djokovic in 2011. Nadal, the world No. 2, has a 41-5 record this year with four singles titles, including the 2012 French Open (his seventh in the last eight years).

But Djokovic is still a premier player and has a chance to show that on the grass courts of the All England Club, away from Nadal's preferred playing surface.

Djokovic hasn't been half bad himself this year, compiling a 36-6 record with two singles titles, but he has slid recently. After two tournament victories in his first four events of 2012 (including the Australian Open), Djokovic has been bounced out of his last four tournaments, which includes three losses to Nadal.

Of course, you also have Roger Federer, who continues to play excellent tennis at 30 years old. Federer has not only gone 39-6 with four singles titles this year, he's always loved the grass courts of Wimbledon (six career titles). However, Federer has been knocked out of two of his last three events by Djokovic. 

On the women's side, the favorites figure to be Maria Sharapova, Serena Williams and Petra Kvitova. 

Sharapova is not only coming off of a French Open title, she's had success at Wimbledon before, winning the event in 2004. She's 36-5 on the year with three singles titles and she's the current world No. 1.

As for Williams, we all know what she's done throughout the years. Of her 13 career Grand Slam singles titles, four have come on the grass courts of the All England Club. She's 27-3 on the year with two singles titles, but she's coming off a surprisingly poor performance at the French Open, where she lost in the first round.

For Kvitova, she hasn't been particularly dominant this year (22-8, no singles titles), but she's still the No. 4 player in the world and she won Wimbledon in 2011. There's also the fact that, while she hasn't closed out tournaments, she advanced to the semifinals of the Australian Open and the French Open this year. She lost to Sharapova at Roland Garros.

ESPN and ESPN2 will be airing the tournament this year.
