BBC Sport and other Wimbledon broadcasters "have made complaints to FIFA about crazy scheduling that sees the men's singles final clash with the 2018 World Cup final," according to Charles Sale of the London DAILY MAIL. The Moscow final is due to kick off at 4pm U.K. time on July 15, 2018. That is "when the flagship tennis match at Wimbledon should be reaching its climax," having started at 2pm. The collision is "unfortunate whoever is involved" but will cause an England "national crisis" in the "unlikely event" of its football team and Andy Murray both being in competition on the day. The BBC contract with Wimbledon details "main channels" coverage rather than specifically BBC One or BBC Two. Networks such as the BBC and Japan's NHK, which have the rights for Wimbledon and the World Cup, are "known to have made inquiries to Zurich" about the possibility of changing the kickoff time. It is pointed out that 4pm is an "unusual time in Europe to start a match of such importance." But FIFA is "adamant there will be no switch" and emphasized that 4pm is an "appropriate time when the world audience is taken into account" (DAILY MAIL, 7/4).
