Wimbledon's Greatest Games cover

Wimbledon’s Greatest Games is the ultimate guide to the most gripping encounters, monumental matches and thrilling tiebreakers ever played at SW19. A must-read for every Wimbledon fan!

By renowned sports author Abi Smith.

Read this action-packed, ace-filled anthology and discover:

  • Why Ann Jones locked herself in the toilets with the Venus Rosewater Dish after her win against Billie Jean King
  • Why notoriously private Pete Sampras made a beeline for his parents after his seventh Wimbledon title win
  • Why a shout from the crowd infuriated Jimmy Connors during the men’s final with Arthur Ashe
  • How the importance of being on course for a double Grand Slam put Rod Laver under pressure in an early round match out on Court Number Four
  • The real reason ‘Little Mo’ ditched her coach before her first ever Wimbledon Championship
  • Why Novak Djokovic harnesses his superpower of selective hearing when he hears cheering for his opponent

From the roar of the crowd to the emotion of the players, the drop-shots, the volleys, the epic rallies and the double-faults, each thrilling contest comes alive as the action is brought to you in vivid detail. So, serve yourself a Pimm's, sit back and let Abi Smith transport you to Centre Court.
