Wimbledon Championships
June 23rd - July 6th, 2008
Wimbledon, England
Wimbledon, there's simply nothing quite like it. From the festive atmoshpere, the rich history, to the grass courts themselves. Wimbledon is certainly acknowledged as the premier tennis tournament in the world, hosted by the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. Every true tennis fan must make a journey to this bastion of tennis history at least once in their lifetime and Championship Tennis Tours makes it as easy as high tea to do just that! In 2007, Roger Federer retained his crown as king of Wimbledon, beating young Spanish prince Rafael Nadal to secure his fifth consecutive title, matching the legendary reign of the watching Bjorn Borg, the king of this court in a previous era. On the Ladies side Venus Williams has joined an elite group by winning the Championship for a fourth time and there is every possibility that, over the coming years, she can improve her position amongst Wimbledon’s great champions.
