Maths? No - String theory !

More string used than any other Slam. Skilled stringers stringing - to get just the correct tension, or spring for the right spin, topspin, slice, or power game. 40 miles of string are fitted to 2,000 rackets over a fortnight at Wimbledon. That's about enough string to go 6 times around the Centre court !

Fancy a cheap ticket, mate?

The first Grand Slam to start selling tickets online. Wimbledon has always tried to keep ahead of technical advances, and has now largely got rid of dodgy street ticket spivs that used to sell outside the grounds. There has always been a policy of advancing with modern computer technology.
