We had standing room tickets for the whole day. It was rather a long day. My dad is 94 and still watches Wimbledon, which he is doing this very day.

Good for you! I love tennis and it is my exercise of choice, but only started playing late in life. I love watching the major tournaments too, and record them now so we can watch them at night and I can work during the daytime. You said no British man has won the tournament since 1936. I thought Andy Murray broke that record last year when he won Wimbledon.
