A little bit about Wimbledon
The All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, which is responsible
for staging the world's leading tennis tournament, is a private
club founded in 1868 as The All England Croquet Club. Its first
ground was situated off Worple Road, Wimbledon.The lawns at the
ground were arranged in such a way that the principal court was
situated in the middle with the others arranged around it, hence
the title 'Centre Court', which was retained when the Club moved in
1922 to its present site in Church Road.
Over the last 20 years the courts of the All England Club have
been graced by some of the sport's greatest and most exciting
players. In 1980 Bjorn Borg of Sweden became the first player to
win the Gentlemen's Singles five times in succession since the
1880s. In 1987 Martina Navratilova of the United States became the
first player to win the Ladies' Singles six times in succession and
in 1990 attained the all-time record of nine victories in the
event. In 2007 Roger Federer equalled Borg's record of consecutive
victories.
