Yes Pandemonium, Andy Murray is flirting with the possibility of being the first British tennis player to win Wimbledon in over 60 years.  The Scottish born right hander has been climbing the ranks and has birthed new local excitement in his homeland.  One of the four major professional tennis tournaments in the world, Wimbledon Centre Court in London is the only one still played on a grass surface.  This speed and excitement makes it a visual experience that cannot be replicated by other tournaments around the world.  I strongly suggest trying to attend this year’s competition because of the domestic significance.

Although it may be just another year to most tennis fans, if Andy Murray wins, it will be the greatest sports accomplishment for British sporting fans since the taking of the FIFA World Cup in 1966.  This means, if you are there for this event, you will be a part of one of the biggest after parties London has seen in the last 25 years.  Wimbledon still does not use a roof so bring an umbrella.  Tickets for the event can be purchased at the official Wimbledon website.  There are some good hotels on the pub row near the “All England Tennis Club”.  Take the Express by Holiday Inn at Wandsworth-Battersea.  It’s close to all the cliché London landmarks: The River Thames, Buckingham Palace, and the Wimbledon courts.  Don’t miss out on another big celebration, I only got so many up my sleeve.  Safe Travels.
