View Original Description
Have you been dreaming about eating a bowl of strawberries and cream while watching the finals of Wimbledon Tennis Tournament on the historic grass courts staged at the All England Lawn Tennis Club? This international gathering of the best tennis players in the world is steeped in tradition. Besides the grass courts and customary refreshments, the players are required to where all white clothing and are referred to as “gentlemen” and “ladies”, now unique in the tennis world. This oldest continually contested international tournament has been held over 130 times and the winner of the various divisions of competition captures one of the Tennis World’s four “Grand Slam” titles.
Held during a fortnight at the end of June and the first part of July each year, The Championships, Wimbledon, its formal reference, provides ample viewing opportunities for world class tennis and always attracts the biggest stars. Adding a trip to London to see the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament is worthy of inclusion on any tennis fan’s list. You can witness some great matches and perhaps catch a glimpse of England’s Royal Family observing a match or presenting a trophy.
