Wimbledon 2024: The Official Story of The Championships is the comprehensive, entertaining, and beautifully illustrated re-telling of a spell-binding fortnight of tennis at the All England Club.

Since 1984, the official 'annual' has reviewed in detail each Championships held at Wimbledon, and this 40th edition promises to be one of the best yet with the tournament playing host to established stars and exciting emerging talents.

Paul Newman's crafted text, coupled with the stunning images captured by Wimbledon's team of award-winning photographers, provides readers with a wonderful and comprehensive review of a memorable tournament played out under blue skies and on stunningly green courts.

Following the full story of the tournament, from Qualifying through to the concluding Mixed Doubles final on Centre Court, the book also focuses on some of the other stories and characters that make Wimbledon so colourful and includes daily features and light-hearted stories from the sold-out grounds in south west London!
