Dont have the ratings for this year yet but last year the rating for the womens final was twice that of the mens final (2.1 vs 0.9)

ESPN had increased TV ratings for the women's final at Wimbledon, but a decrease for the men's final.

The women's final between Angelique Kerber and Serena Williams drew a 2.1 rating, peaking at 2.4 during the final quarter, according to an ESPN announcement. That is up from 2017, when Garbine Muguruza and Venus Williams got a 1.7, and the highest since 2015.

Subsequently, initial ratings released for the men's final were 0.9, down from 1.5 in 2017 and the lowest since ESPN began broadcasting the finals in 2012.

I would assume this years men’s final would be higher since it was Fed-Novak
