Wimbledon is the oldest and arguably the most prestigious tennis tournament in the world, held on the iconic grass courts of the All England Club in London. Known for its traditions, such as players wearing all white and strawberries and cream being served to spectators, Wimbledon is beloved globally. However, it is played on grass, not clay. Grass courts tend to produce faster play and shorter rallies compared to clay, and Wimbledon is famous for its speed and serve-and-volley style. If you’re looking for the only Grand Slam played on clay, you’ll have to look to mainland Europe.
