Despite rapidly changing fashion trends, Wimbledon has remained a symbol of timeless elegance, with players and spectators embracing the tournament's iconic all-white tradition in a style many say evokes the refined atmosphere of Britain's traditional high society.
"This is Wimbledon! You've got to dress up," 65-year-old Finnish tennis coach Jari Hedman said with a smile.
For the occasion, Hedman chose an Italian-made white linen suit, complemented by a navy blazer and a vibrant orange tie.
"I picked this classy outfit in honor of the tournament," he told Agence France-Presse (AFP).
Held this year from June 29-July 12, Wimbledon is the oldest of tennis' four Grand Slam tournaments and will celebrate its 150th anniversary in 2027.
