The iconic moment when the roof closes on Centre Court at the Wimbledon Championships in 2011. The photograph captures the grandeur and excitement of one of tennis' most prestigious events. As rain threatens to interrupt play, the state-of-the-art retractable roof is activated, transforming the open-air court into a covered arena. The image showcases the sleek design and engineering marvel of this modern addition to Wimbledon's historic grounds. The translucent roof panels allow natural light to filter through, creating an ethereal atmosphere as players battle it out on the pristine grass courts below. This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to that memorable day in June 2011, where spectators eagerly awaited for play to resume under sheltered conditions. It symbolizes both tradition and progress, as Wimbledon embraces technology while preserving its rich heritage.
