Now a Wimbledon themed post wouldn’t be complete without a few interesting facts about the tournament, so here are a couple to get you started:

This year’s tournament is expected to be better than ever with matches being played across 19 courts and a total prize fund of £14,600,000 being shared amongst the competitors.

It’s expected that 8,615 punnets of strawberries will be consumed per day. That’s 28,000kg of strawberries over the tournament, served with approximately 7,000 litres of fresh cream.
