The final preparations are being made hours before Wimbledon is set to kick off this summer.
Workers at the iconic tennis grounds were snapped cleaning, removing covers off courts and watering plants ahead of the hundreds of thousands of spectators who will visit the grounds, over the next two weeks. The 2026 Championships will start on Monday and run until Sunday July 12.
Tennis fans visiting the site tomorrow will watch the gentlemen’s and ladies’ singles first round. Some famous name playing tomorrow including The UK’s Emma Raducanu, Japan’s Naomi Osaka, Serbia’s Novak Djokovic and men’s No.1 Jannik Sinner.
Dozens of tents have already popped up in Wimbledon Park as ticketless fans camp up overnight to try and get their hands on tickets for the opening day.
Elsewhere in Wimbledon news, Emma Raducanu has left fans shrouded in doubt over her presence at the championships after she was spotted with what appears to be a strap on her leg.
