GAME, SET, MATCH

The Championships, Wimbledon – London, UK

Nadal, Murray or Djokovic; Kvitova, Keys or Venus Williams – who will be victorious is anyone’s guess but the calibre is high as always for this year’s hotly anticipated tournament, which is as popular as ever, and not simply for the action on court. Though edgy female players occasionally like to challenge the concept of “all-white”, both the dress code and the tradition of playing on grass courts remains unchanged since 1877 – as does a more modern tradition of enjoying centre-court views with Pimms and strawberries and cream – to the order of some 320,000 glasses and 140,000 servings each year. www.wimbledon.com
