In Wimbledon time flows slowly. Very slowly. Traditions, delicious centenary traditions, which everyone respects and loves. The white, the queue, the rites to make the grass grow. There is a tradition, however, that few know, but that is around the world, filling Italy with pride and joy. The Centre Court scoreboard remained stopped at 7.25 pm (local time) of 13 July 2025, and will remain so until the first game of 2026. Because, in fact, as usual, the result of the final remains there, imprinted, until the beginning of the new edition of the tournament: Jannik Sinner Batte Carlos Alcaraz 4-6 6-4 6-4 and becomes the new champion of Wimbledon, for the first time in the first time in the first time in career.

all stopped

Everything has changed, around that scoreboard, in these 19 days, but that result, with those yellow writings on the green, will remain still, immutable, for almost 12 months. There are no spectators, no Pimm’s and strawberries with cream, the Henman Hill (or Murray Mound, do you) is empty, the All England Lawn Tennis and Crquet Club has resumed the everyday activity more or less. It is already thought of 2026 and the maintenance works of the fields have therefore begun, especially that of the Center Court, the most important and sacred field in the world of tennis.

Images

Here, Wimbledon circulated the images of the maintenance of what is in all respects a temple circulate. The grass has left room for the earth, the green will soon return, but in the background there is always the scoreboard with that score. Jannik Sinner beats Carlos Alcaraz 4-6 6-4 6-4. That game that saw the blue project in the history of Italian sport, and beyond, will remain there until the curtain is raised on the 2026 edition of the English Slam. And, always as a tradition, it will be the reigning champion to inaugurate the Center Court. For the first time, it will be an Italian to do so. It will be Jannik Sinner.
