Wimbledon ‘The Championships, Wimbledon’ is the oldest tennis tournament in the world and the most prestigious one. It is held every year in June and July at a district called ‘Wimbledon’ near London. Out of all the four major Grand Slam tournaments, it is the only one that is still played on grass courts. All tennis players are required to wear all- white clothing during the competition. It is also a tradition that spectators eat strawberries and cream while watching the matches.
