Wimbledon.
Wimbledon needs little introduction. In June and July each year, it
takes centre stage on the sports calendar, playing host to a Grand
Slam tennis tournament. It has become an iconic venue and over the
years it’s changed and modernised while still keeping its classical
elegance – setting it apart from any other sports venue.
