From 2000 to 2014 he presented Today at Wimbledon, BBC Two's nightly tennis highlights, until the format changed in 2015. This was mainly due to the 2013 Marion Bartoli controversy which led the BBC to drop Inverdale from the show. However, the new version Wimbledon 2Day hosted by Clare Balding was ridiculed by the public. Such was the unpopularity of Wimbledon 2Day, a Twitter campaign called "bring back John Inverdale" attracted thousands of supporters, with Inverdale claiming that he had "never been so popular."[9] The unpopular highlights show was ditched in 2016 and rebranded its original title, Today at Wimbledon. Inverdale is now a member of the main commentary team.
"Unbelievable sexist drivel from Becker. Appalling and not relevant to analysis during a tennis match #Wimbledon #casualsexism," said one. Another said, "@Wimbledon terrible sexist and plain boring commentary from inverdale and Becker. Hope it's their last year with you. Time for a change."
