Créche
The first tennis Championships took place in 1877. A notice in leisure magazine The Field invited amateur tennis players to attend a lawn tennis meeting on Monday July 9 and the following days. Some 22 men -- no women were allowed at that stage -- paid the £1 1 shilling entrance fee, and were told to bring their own rackets. Just 200 people attended the final.
-
since the first tennis Championships in 1877, Wimbledon has become one of the world's most famous tennis tournaments, attracting followers in their millions.
The quintessentially British occasion sees 10,000 punnets of strawberries and cream consumed each day, and 300,000 glasses of Pimm's enjoyed over the fortnight.
But where did it all begin?
Wimbledon originated with a croquet club founded on July 23, 1868, when six gentlemen headed by John H. Walsh met in the offices of Herbert Cox, the publisher of The Field magazine at 346 Strand in London.
