The History
The first Wimbledon tennis tournament was played in 1877 on the grounds of the All England Croquet Club. The Gentlemen’s Singles was the only event on the schedule. Eight players entered, with Spenser Gore winning the first Wimbledon title. The event was open to all Comers, with Gentlemen’s being defined as members of clubs affiliated with the All England Club. As Wimbledon grew in popularity, it became necessary to expand the number of events. The Ladies’ Singles and Gentlemen’s Doubles were added in 1884, followed by the Mixed Doubles in 1913 and finally, Tennis (later called Lawn Tennis) was played at Wimbledon for the first time in 1877.
Today, Wimbledon is the oldest tennis tournament in the world and is widely considered to be the most prestigious. It is one of four Grand Slam events, along with the French Open, Australian Open, and US Open. Wimbledon is held at the All England Club in London every year and draws top tennis players from around the world.
The Outcome
The match was a very close one, with both players fighting for every point. In the end, it was Novak Djokovic who prevailed, winning 6-4, 6-4.
