Wimbledon is the oldest tennis tournament in the whole world – it has taken place every summer since 1877, making it well over a century old. The tournament has always been played in Wimbledon (a part of south London), and has been in its current grounds since 1922. - Wimbledon – Some Facts
The organisation of Wimbledon is somewhat complicated. Wimbledon is actually a large number of tournaments, all being held at the same time, including men’s and women’s singles and doubles events, mixed doubles, singles and doubles youth tournaments (also split by gender), men’s and women’s singles contests for older players, and wheelchair tennis (doubles only). - Wimbledon Greats
The fact that Wimbledon is played on grass makes it quite different to other Grand Slam tournaments and it is therefore considered quite difficult to win, making it a much-prized achievement for the world’s best players. - Lawn Tennis Association
If you want to go and see Wimbledon, it’s harder than you might expect. The courts aren’t that big, and there are far more people who want to go than there are seats available, especially for the singles events – tickets for the final, needless to say, are like gold dust.
