It's that time of year again. Wimbledon2019 is here. Who's going to come out on top this year?
The genteel surroundings of the All England Club will host the two-week British tennis love-in that is Wimbledon, a highlight of the sporting and social calendar.With a rich history dating back to 1877, Wimbledon is steeped in aura and tradition. From the revered crucible of Centre Court and the all-white clothing of the players, to the overnight camping and famous queue for daily tickets, and the elegance of polished notables in the royal box, the atmosphere is quintessentially British.
Tearful Roger Federer remembers late coach 03:21 The Big Three have won all but two of the last 16 Wimbledons and 53 of the last 64 majors so it's just possible that the winner will be one of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal or Novak Djokovic.The 37-year-old Federer is enjoying an Indian summer to his career and is second favorite to clinch a record-extending ninth Wimbledon title to take his tally to 21 grand slams.
Will Nadal pass Federer for grand slam wins? 03:52Swashbuckling Spaniard Nadal has been resting since his record-extending 12th French Open victory in Paris earlier this month as he targets a third Wimbledon title and first since 2010.

Rise of Naomi Osaka 03:07Williams also has unfinished business with Osaka, who edged that controversial US Open final last September and backed it up with victory over Petra Kvitova in the Australian Open.Her success took her to world No.1, and she has been likened to Serena by former men's Wimbledon champion Pat Cash. But she admits the full implications of being the best in the world took her by surprise.
