The Championships, Wimbledon, also referred to as Wimbledon, is the oldest major championship in tennis and is regarded by many to be the most prestigious tennis championship in the world. The Wimbledon tournament is one of the four Grand Slam Tournaments, along with the French Open, US Open, and Australian Open.
Wimbledon is held annually between late June and the beginning of July for two weeks at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London, England. The Wimbledon tournament is the third Grand Slam event played each year, preceded by the Australian Open and the French Open, and followed by the U.S. Open.
All Wimbledon tournaments are simultaneously held at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club for Gentlemen’s Singles, Ladies’ Singles, Gentlemen’s Doubles, Ladies’ Doubles and Mixed Doubles. Youth tournaments – Boys’ Singles, Girls’ Singles, Boys’ Doubles and Girls’ Doubles – are also held. Additionally, special invitational tournaments are held: the 35 and over Gentlemen’s Doubles, 45 and over Gentlemen’s Doubles, 35 and over Ladies’ Doubles and wheelchair doubles.
The nineteen courts at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club at Wimbledon are all composed purely of rye grass. The speed of 100% rye grass is much slower than the 80% rye grass mix previously used for the courts. This means that serve and volley players are no longer dominant on the surface which now favours baseliners, and has seen Wimbledon fall from being the fastest Grand Slam to the 3rd fastest, behind the U.S. Open and Australian Open. Among women, the serve and volley strategy has been less common since around 1980.
The main show courts, Centre Court and No. 1 Court, are normally used only for two weeks a year, during the Wimbledon Championships. The remaining seventeen courts are regularly used for other events hosted by the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. The show courts will, however, be pressed into action for the second time in three months in 2012 as Wimbledon will host the tennis events of the 2012 Olympic Games.
Tickets are available for all sessions and rounds of the Wimbledon tournament. Tennis Ticket News offers men’s singles tennis tickets, men’s doubles tennis tickets, women’s singles tennis tickets, women’s doubles tennis tickets, quarterfinal tennis tickets, semifinal tennis tickets, and final tennis tickets. Tickets are also available for Wimbledon tennis packages, including Hotel and tournament tickets.
