Wimbledon, a sea of green seats around a green court, perfect tension wrapped in perfect applause.
On the court all those hours and years of practice came together in the kind of heat that births a star.
Wimbledon, as English as strawberries and cream, came with that perfect aggression sports have wrapped in a neat set of rules to which the ladies and gentlemen did abide.
All white dresses, all white shorts, this was the world of passion within the boundaries of good sporting rules.
Upon the neat striped green lawn move the flexible soles of tennis shoes, for Wimbledon has begun, the crowd in reverend hush.
