Wimbledon Qualifying - Memories of Years Past
Mark Keil, former professional tennis player and now tennis coach writes on his experiences playing the qualies of Wimby. Wimbledon qualifying is played at the Bank of England, Roehampton. It’s about a twelve minute drive to the site of the hallowed grounds of Wimbledon. The courts are cricket fields with tennis lines drawn on them. There’s nothing really special about the place at all. There is prize money in the qualifying, so it is beneficial to play. Usually the first 104 ranked male and female players are accepted straight into the main draw if Wimbledon. Then the next 128 or so best players on the ATP/WTA computer ranking lists play for the 16 open main draw spots.
