Well known for the Strawberries and Cream, the Pimms and the all-white outfits, Wimbledon is a British tradition like no other and that was on full display during the Mirra Andreeva - Anastasia Potapova match.
On the second point of the contest, Potapova was serving and the umpire had to interject while she was going through her service motion.
But not aimed towards Potapova but the crowd as fans were warned about opening champagne before players serve.
An occasion worth celebrating it seems. "Ladies and gentlemen... if you are opening a bottle of champagne, don't do it as the players are about to serve," said the umpire which just drew a wry smile from Potapova.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
