Wimbledon
Over two weeks the finest service can be found in south west London as the Wimbledon Tennis Championships take place at The All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. It is THE tennis tournament every player wants to win. It is the oldest major founded in 1877 and widely seen as the most prestigious. If you can get a ticket, there’s nothing better than sitting on Centre Court, with its capacity of 15,000, drinking a Pimm’s and eating strawberries and cream while watching the world’s best tennis players.
