No generation of British sports fan can remember a time when Wimbledon was not the hottest ticket of the summer.
And it is impossible to see a time when that will change. Wimbledon is, arguably, THE jewel in this country’s sporting crown.
This year’s Championships will offer the same compelling mix of great tennis and rollercoaster emotions, in a fabled setting, that captivates the nation and beyond every summer. A quintessentially British institution but, at the same time, the pinnacle for the globe’s greatest players.
Only this year, a few will be missing, not least the most charismatic male player of the very modern era, Carlos Alcaraz. The seven-times Grand Slam champion will be absent as he continues to recover from a wrist injury, robbing the men’s draw of a marquee name.
