Wimbledon Traditions

Like many other major sporting events, from the Kentucky Derby to the Indy 500, there are many superstitions and traditions associated with Wimbledon. Below are some of the more well-known tennis traditions still practiced today.

Grass Courts: Unlike many other tennis championships, Wimbledon has stuck with the original grass court. The French Open is played on clay courts, while the US Open and Australian Open are played on a cushioned cement-type court.

Dress Code: Wimbledon is known for its strict dress code of all white attire for the athletes competing. This tradition has been around since the tournament’s origination in 1877.

Strawberries and Cream: This unorthodox concession is served at Wimbledon and has become the quintessential snack of the tournament.

Regal Attendance: Expect to see the Royal Family at the event seated in their Royal Box, and maybe see the competitors acknowledge their presence with a curtsy or bow.
