At the tournament’s spring press briefing, the club’s chairman, Ian Hewitt, said developments in the care of grass courts meant 14 days of play was now deemed possible.
well if they needed to say this to justify this change, that works for me if it makes them feel better. |

Beginning in 2022 with the Centenary of Centre Court, we intend to make Middle Sunday a permanent part of our tournament schedule, thus extending The Championships to become a 14-day tournament.
The reasons for this are many. It has never been more important for sports events to be proactively taking steps to enhance their accessibility, in order to reach broader and more diverse audiences. Introducing an extra day to our schedule, on a Sunday, will enable us to do this at this important time. Secondly, and importantly, it offers an opportunity to create a different kind of atmosphere and tradition on the Middle Sunday through an additional day of ticket distribution, with our desire to focus on the local community in particular. It will also enable us to provide greater resilience to the tournament programme for the benefit of our competitors. By adding the Middle Sunday, and being able to spread the fourth round over two days as the other Grand Slams do, we will be able to improve the programme and do justice to the second Monday. While much-loved as ‘Manic Monday’, the current staging of the entire fourth round on one day brings many significant player and spectator challenges. |
