For the first time in 1877, the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament is one of the world’s most iconic sporting events.
The game venue is the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, which is established nine years earlier, which exudes history and tradition.
With the exact lecture of history, Wimbledon is not only the oldest in the world but also the only Grand Slam, which has always been played on the same platform. French openers are known for their mass platform, but there, too, the fields were grass in the beginning.
Wimbledon’s tennis pipes are not modern sports surveys. The event does not create an atmosphere artificially with the content or music of large light boards.
In the institutionalized institution of southwestern london Arne Six present.
– I personally bothered me that Wimbledon has sometimes been perceived as conservative and somehow stuck in formulas. I have never liked it because, in the light of tennis history, Wimbledon has been a massive pioneer in many things, he outlines.
It can be said that Wimbledon’s grass has seen socially advanced steps.
The women were there in 1884.
“For example, women were able to play in Wimbledon for more than 40 years before they had equal voting rights with men in England,” Six compares.
– The position of women there has been really good at one time when they think about society anyway.
In 1979 Belfastian teacher Catherine McTavish broke one glass roof when she was the first woman to judge a match in Wimbledon.
Six recalls that Wimbledon was also at the forefront of bringing the Open era in the 1960s, which opened the Grand Slam gates to professional players.

The most famous of Wimbledon’s tradition is the white clothing of players.
The outfit code, which was introduced in the 1880s, was the norm of its time, but it has become a recognized style for the world’s most respected Grand Slam.
The white color was originally chosen on practical grounds because it was seen to cover the sweaty boots best.
The rules of the tournament were recorded in the early 1960s so that athletes had to use “mostly” white. A quick glance at the 70s and 80s reveals that the clothes flashed in the form of stripes and patterns.
In the 1980 Classic Final John Mcenroe had pulled a screaming red sweaty on his head.
The going intensified in 1993, when the rules were refined. It was only at that point in Wimbledon’s completely white era.
