A Quarter-Finals Day On No.1 Court At Wimbledon, 9 July 2025

We had a truly lovely day at Wimbledon.

We were mostly there to see two quarter-finals on No. 1 Court:

  • Iga Swiatek v Liudmila Samsonova;
  • Jannik Sinner v Ben Shelton.

Unusually, we ended up seeing both of the eventual singles tournament winners in action on No. 1 Court that day.

But before all that, as usual, we got Wimbledon well early and made a bee-line to Court 12, where we saw bits of:

  • Fabrice Santoro & Anne Keothavong v Nenad Zimonjic & Martina Navratilova;
  • Hannah Klugman v Charo Esquiva Banuls.

I did a fair bit of wandering around during and between the quarter finals matches on No. 1 Court, mostly taking in some junior action or just taking in the atmosphere generally.

We had a super day – what else can I say?

Didn’t we have a lovely time?
