The event is one of the widely known tennis tournaments in the world. It is also the highlight of the tennis calendar of the United Kingdom and contestants (tennis players) from across the world join the fray to win the coveted title.
Often synonymous with scrumptious strawberries, cream, torrential rain and, of course world class tennis, Wimbledon Tennis Championships always finds a place in everyone’s list. It is only a few days to go and the fun has already begun. Excitement sees overflowing as people have already started booking luxury London Holiday Rentals.
