The Tournament:

The Wimbledon Championships, commonly known simply as Wimbledon, is the oldest tennis tournament in the world and is widely regarded as the most prestigious. It has been held at the All England Club in Wimbledon, London, since 1877 and is played on outdoor grass courts, with retractable roofs over the two main courts since 2019.

Wimbledon is one of the four Grand Slam tennis tournaments, the others being the Australian Open, the French Open, and the US Open. Wimbledon is the only major still played on grass, the traditional tennis playing surface. Also, it is the only Grand Slam that retains a night-time curfew, though matches can now continue until 11.00 pm under the lights.

The tournament traditionally takes place over two weeks in late June and early July, starting on the last Monday in June and culminating with the Ladies' and Gentlemen's Singles Finals, scheduled for the Saturday and Sunday at the end of the second week. Five major events are held each year, with additional junior and invitational competitions also taking place. In 2009, Wimbledon's Centre Court was fitted with a retractable roof to lessen the loss of playing time due to rain. A roof was operational over No. 1 Court from 2019, when a number of other improvements were made, including adding cushioned seating, a table and 10 independently operable cameras per court to capture the games.

About London:

London is the capital and largest city of England and the United Kingdom, with a population of just under 9 million. It stands on the River Thames in south-east England at the head of a 50-mile (80 km) estuary down to the North Sea, and has been a major settlement for two millennia. The City of London, its ancient core and financial centre, was founded by the Romans as Londinium and retains its medieval boundaries. The City of Westminster, to the west of the City of London, has for centuries hosted the national government and parliament. Since the 19th century, the name "London" has also referred to the metropolis around this core, historically split between the counties of Middlesex, Essex, Surrey, Kent, and Hertfordshire, which since 1965 has largely comprised Greater London, which is governed by 33 local authorities and the Greater London Authority.

If August Holmgren wins his next qualification match to Wimbledon, Denmark will have 4 players in the main round of Wimbledon for the first time in history. The other three being Holger Rune, Clara Tauson and Elmer Møller. What a time for danish tennis.

Tennis is a very small sport in Denmark (only 85.000 registred players in the whole country).

Just saw article of Djokovic's potential draw'd opponents! Whoever thinks he gets all the breaks will be pleasantly surprised by the toughest draw I've ever seen! It begins with Norrie in the 1st Round., then Bublik in the 3rd, Medvedev in the 4th, Draper in QF, Sinner SF, & Alcaraz in the final again! Nole's only real break is in the 2nd Round. with Evans, but the home crowd behind their countryman! If Novak somehow survives this gauntlet of dangerous players, it'll be the greatest feat in tennis history! There may be some upsets along the way as well, but can't see this ending well if #25 is dependant on his efforts in this tournament! :astonished-face::yawningface::fearful-face::face-with-hand-over-mouth:
