Wimbledon 2010 Tennis Tickets

Wimbledon is tennis's oldest event played a the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. It is regarded by many as the most important international event in tennis. The two-week tournament on nineteen courts is the only Grand Slam played on a grass surface. It is preceded by the Australian and French opens and followed by the U.S. Open. Singles and doubles tournaments are held for men and women, a mixed doubles event, boys and girls youth tournaments and other special invitational tournaments. There are 128 players who participate in the singles events and 64 teams who take part in the doubles tournaments. Matches are best of five sets, single elimination.

The year 1877 marked the inaugural Wimbledon, which only featured a men's singles tournament. Only amateur players participated until 1968. No British man or woman has won the tournament since Fred Perry in 1936 and Virginia Wade in 1977.

For the first time since 2002 someone else other that Roger Federer won the Wimbledon Men's Championship in 2008. Spaniard Rafael Nadal took Wimbledon men's singles title by defeating Federer in five sets. This was the third straight year that these two players faced each other in the final, but it's the first time that the "King of Clay" comes out on top.

On the women's side American Venus Williams defeated her sister Serena to claim her second consecutive crown and fifth overall. This is the second time in her career that Venus wins back-to-back Wimbledon titles. She first accomplished the feat in 2000 and 2001. Venus has won three of the last four Wimbledon Championships and is the first woman to repeat as female champion since her sister did it in 2002-2003.

In the 2000's the Wimbledon Championships have belonged to these American sisters as the Williamses have combined to win seven of the nine tournaments held between 2000 and 2008. In fact the only final of this decade that has not featured either Serena or Venus was the one in 2006 between Russian Maria Sharapova and Belgian Justin Henin.
