This is a complete long shot.
My wife is a or would be a wimbledon tennis groupy ;) and avid tennis fan (especially Andy Murray, as he is the double of our son )
Whilst in London i took her on a guided tour of the place, which was well worth it for me ;) ;)
Anyone know anyone or can get tickets for next years championship.
She has entered the ballot system but not holding her breath.
The only other option is £2250 each for debenture tickets :o

Just have to ask, if i can get 2 tickets i will be treat like royalty for the rest of my life :lol:

No promises to either of you! But my mate does radio IT work for them each year and gets some complimentary tickets - wife and I went a few years back. Nothing special just open access to any matches but not the centre and court 1. They are pre-booked.

Got to see one of the William sisters though and just a nice leisurely day out.

I'll ask for you...

Make friends with someone who is in Sales in IBM. They sponsor it and get loads of tables for lunch + tickets to watch.

Just an update. WE may or may not get tickets for Wimbledon next year but I have a friend working in Dubai so I have agreed to take the Mrs there in February next year to see the Dubai open tennis championships. All the same players etc but probably better weather 8-) I am now assured to be treat like royalty for the rest of my days .... :titshake: :bonk:
He is the 1st team physio for the main footy club over there so I will get to see some footy also :thumbsup:
