How to watch Queen's Club Championship: Live stream HSBC tennis free from anywhere
The road to Wimbledon continues in the traditional way, as a selection of the world's best players head to London's historic Queen's Club to test their skills on the grass. The men's singles tournament has now reached the quarter-final stage, and we're explaining how to watch the Queen's Club Championship as the last eight vie to reach Sunday's final.
With previous champions including Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, Pete Sampras, and — with a record five titles — Sir Andy Murray, Queen's is the traditional but competitive appetizer for the two weeks at SW19. Carlos Alcaraz is seeded No. 1 and came into the tournament fresh off his French Open victory as the favorite to win his second title here, with hometown hero Jack Draper the man most likely to please UK tennis fans. You can see a full rundown of Friday's quarter-final matchups at the bottom of this article.
While Alcaraz and Draper remain likely to clash in Sunday's final, plenty of other seeds have already perished. That includes first-round defeats for American trio Taylor Fritz, Ben Shelton, and Frances Tiafoe. And after 37-year-old Tatjana Maria shocked pundits with her win in the women's draw last week to become the first female Queen's champion in 52 years, it shows that anything can happen on these capricious grass courts.
With Wimbledon starting on June 30, this is a chance to find out who is taking the best grass court form into 2025's third major.

How to watch the Queen's Club Championship in the US
This ATP Tour 500 tournament is being streamed on the Tennis Channel in the US, which is featured in many cable packages. To watch Queen's online, you can get access to this and other of the tennis calendar's biggest tournaments thanks to the dedicated Tennis Channel platform ($10 a month or $110 a year) or an OTT streaming service, like Sling TV, DirecTV, or Fubo.
Sling TV is among the most affordable options for cord-cutters. To watch the Tennis Channel through the provider, you first need to subscribe to your choice of either its standard Sling Orange or Blue plans. Each costs $46 a month, with your first month half price, and has an individual selection of channels included (see our dedicated guide to Sling Orange vs. Blue to help you choose according to your channel preferences). From there, you then need to get Sling's Sports Extra add-on for an additional $11 a month to get the Tennis Channel.
DirecTV is a more comprehensive cord-cutting option, with the Tennis Channel appearing among channel lineups of its Choice, Ultimate, and Premier tiers. These cost $90/month, $120/month, and $165/month, respectively (before standard taxes and fees are added), and all include more than 125 channels. All plans come with a seven-day free trial.
Fubo is one of the most comprehensive OTT streamers out there and includes the Tennis Channel on its 295+ channel Elite plan. It costs $95/month (before regional sports fees), but you can save $20 on your first month and, for new users of Fubo, there's a five-day free trial that lets you try before you buy.
Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.

Sexual assault and drink driving – cosy crime but not as we know it
A puzzle-setter turns sleuth in a quirky British crime series. Stop me if you think you've heard this one before. Murder Most Puzzling is trying to be Ludwig, which was a hit for the BBC last year. But it's a pale imitation. While that one was a five-star treat starring David Mitchell, this one is a two-star rip-off starring Phyllis Logan. The missteps start as soon as we are introduced to her character, Cora Felton. Cora is The Puzzle Lady, a crossword compiler whose job has made her so famous that she has her own range of biscuits and TV adverts. Let's not pause to ponder how unlikely that is. She is called in to investigate the case of a young woman found murdered in a churchyard, with a mysterious crossword clue in her pocket. Unfortunately, Cora can't make head nor tail of the clue when she first sees it because she's still sozzled from the night before. When we first meet her, she is passed out at the wheel of her car after a spot of drink-driving. Drink-driving? Really? We're supposed to find this quirkily amusing, but it strikes the wrong tone right away. It's a sign that the show doesn't quite know what it's supposed to be. This is cosy crime, yet having someone at a town hall meeting ask if the murder victim was sexually assaulted belongs in a grittier police drama. At least the mystery is wrapped up in a feature-length episode rather than being dragged out. The show is based on a book series by Parnell Hall and the failings of the TV series are odd because its writer, Dominique Moloney is a veteran of Father Brown and The Sister Boniface Mysteries. Some bits do conform to the cosy crime template: jaunty music, a picturesque setting in the fictional market town of Bakerbury (it's Lisburn in Northern Ireland), and the odd silly character, such as the blustering mayor in a cravat who runs the local police force. The programme's saving graces are the three lead performances. Logan, best known as Mrs Hughes in Downton Abbey, is a safe pair of hands and does her best with the material. Charlotte Hope is a bright spot as Cara's niece and right-hand-woman, Sherry. And Adam Best is, well, the best thing here as DCI Derek Hooper, who has never worked a murder case before and reluctantly turns to Cora for help. There is a twist halfway through relating to Cora's job, and if you didn't see it coming then I'm afraid your sleuthing skills are a little below par.

What is Murder Most Puzzling? Channel 5 launches Ludwig-style murder mystery show
There are few entirely new concepts in TV, so it's unsurprising that every so often a debut series feels like a déjà vu moment for viewers. Murder Most Puzzling might well spark that sense of familiarity in anyone settling down to watch Channel 5 on Thursday, 19 June as the murder mystery starring Downton Abbey's Phyllis Logan follows a similar premise to Ludwig, a hit for the BBC in 2024. Both comedy-dramas feature an oddball cryptic puzzle writer who joins forces with the police to solve some head-scratching cases. Whether Logan's show can replicate the huge success of the David Mitchell starrer remains to be seen, but if you like quirky sleuths and mind-boggling clues, this could be the series for you. Here's all you need to know about Murder Most Puzzling as it begins on Channel 5. A cryptic crossword enthusiast at odds with social norms joins forces with the police to help solve a series of puzzling murders - no, it's not the second season of BBC's Ludwig, this is Channel 5 offering Murder Most Puzzling. This time, the cruciverbalist in question is Cora Felton, played by Phyllis Logan. She's a Bloody Mary-swilling, chain-smoking brain box who turns out to be a match for local detectives when she tries her hand at sleuthing. Ludwig fans might spot plenty of similarities in this three-part series, but it's actually based on the crime-thriller Puzzle Lady Mysteries novels by Parnell Hall which were published between 1999 and 2019. Hall is a US author, but the TV adaptation couldn't be more British, set in the village of Bakerbury where like Midsomer Murders, there is an unusually high ratio of suspicious deaths in the small community. Downton Abbey's Phyllis Logan is the series star as Cora and she told This Morning on Thursday, 19 June what a fun time she'd had making the series. "It's so punchy and different," she said. "I know it's about murder, but if you can have a comedy side to murder then this is it. She likes a Bloody Mary before just great fun to play a character like that." Logan added: "Everybody can't get enough of (crime drama), and people can't get enough of making it either. But this has got a really lovely twist to it because it's not your straightforward, grisly old crime." Her co-stars include Charlotte Hope as Sherry Carter, Adam Best as DCI Hooper, and Nick Danan and Jack Weise as his police colleagues DS Sam Brody and PC Danny Finley. Logan also welcomed her husband Kevin McNally onto set for the second time in a year as they co-starred again after playing husband and wife in BBC's Miss Austen. She told This Morning: "We started the year last year working together playing Mr and Mrs Austen, and then we finished the year playing a kind of romantically-linked couple in Murder Most Puzzling. It's like bring your husband to work day!" Murder Most Puzzling begins on Channel 5 at 8pm on Thursday, 19 June.

Greenwood Whiskey Launches Limited-Edition Juneteenth Bottle
Greenwood Whiskey, a Black-owned American whiskey brand, names itself after the historic Greenwood District in Tulsa, Oklahoma, which was a haven of Black excellence and prosperity. For Juneteenth, the company is rolling out a new, limited-edition bottle in connection with the holiday. Greenwood Whiskey, founded by Kweilin Gordon, Che Bailey, Sheldon Johns-Harris, and James Roach, produces an array of rye whiskies, which some would say is bourbon's spicier cousin. Rye whiskey has its fair share of fans, and Greenwood Whiskey seems to be leading a charge in expanding interest in the category. Today is Juneteenth (June 19,) and in celebration of the holiday, the brand partnered with artist Sway Jones for the new drop, adorning the bottle with images of figures joining together in celebration. Portions from the sale of the Juneteenth edition bottle will be donated to The Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurship, which aims to promote and build burgeoning Black businesses. For cocktail ideas and the like, Greenwood has a few classics on deck, like the Gold Rush, their version of a Mule, the Paper Plane, and the can't-miss Old Fashioned. Be sure to check out their homepage for more recipes and ideas. In full transparency, we haven't tried this whiskey yet, but hope to do so soon. We'll circle back with a proper review once that happens. The whiskey is available across Georgia, Oklahoma, and also ships orders nationally via its online commerce system (excluding Michigan, South Dakota, Tennessee, and Utah). Learn more here.
