Wimbledon
Wimbledon is the oldest tennis tournament in the world, and
all the top tennis players want to win it.
It’s very different from most of the other international
tournaments, not only because it’s important and it’s on grass,
but because players have to follow some very
old-fashioned rules. Firstly, for example, they have to
wear white – white sports shoes and socks as well as
white tops and white shorts or skirts. Nowadays, they can
wear some colour on their clothes, but only if the colour is
one centimetre wide or less. The rule is unpopular with
some players because they think it is old-fashioned, and it
makes people think that tennis is not a modern sport. They
also want to wear what they feel like wearing, and some
would like
to wear advertising on their clothes, but they can’t. Other
players like the rule – it makes Wimbledon feel special and
different. Women are allowed to wear shorts at Wimbledon,
but most players prefer to wear sports dresses or skirts.
Roger Federer, one of the most successful men’s players,
sometimes wears a smart, white evening jacket when he
walks on to the court at Wimbledon! He takes it off when he
starts the match!

Another tradition is also unusual in tennis. At Wimbledon,
female players are called Miss or Mrs. So, the umpire will
say, for example, ‘Game, Set and Match to Miss Williams’ at
the end of the match. Again, some people like the tradition,
but other players think it’s too old-fashioned. Why can’t they
use their whole name
or just their surname like they do with the men? In other
ways, Wimbledon is a very modern tournament. The Centre
Court at Wimbledon is a fantastic place to play and watch
tennis. It has an expensive and brilliantly-designed roof, so
players don’t have to stop
playing when it rains – something that is not uncommon in
London, even in July, when the tournament takes place. Winners
get over £2 million in prize money, and losing finalists get half
that amount. The tournament makes
a lot of money, not just from ticket sales, but also from
television money, and from sales of food and souvenirs.
Wimbledon is famous for selling strawberries and cream, and
visitors eat an amazing 140,000 servings of
strawberries every year. That’s a lot of strawberries – and a
great tradition!
