Well, first time at Wimbledon and we're hooked. Queued up at 6, got in at 11. Scorching hot day! Didn't realise how amazing it looks. First game we sat on court 12 ans watched Ana Konjuh come from 5-1 down in the first set to win 7-6, 3-6, 6-4. I was baking hot just watching - god knows how they played for 2 and a half hours. Then over to court 3 to watch Martina Hingis in the womens doubles destroy some Russians. Then a wander through the smaller games, before joining Murray Mount to watch Andy. We had to leave at 7:45 (it was a School trip) so wandered to the exit, but then someone came up to us and gave us centre court tickets, so we went and watched a few Murray games which was incredible. Great day fully recommended.
I defy anyone to not be hooked once they've visited. The place is amazing, and the atmosphere even just walking around the grounds is incredible. Wimbledon really is a special place.
