Wimbledon officials to mull Court One roof?
The All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) is reportedly set to consider the possibility of constructing a roof over Wimbledon's Court One - the venue's second largest.
A multi-million pound retractable roof was unveiled on Centre Court in 2009, which allowed play to continue during adverse weather conditions during the Wimbledon Championships. However, the Guardian has reported that AELTC officials could now discuss a roof for Court One, following this year's conclusion of its 15-year strategy.
A spokesperson told the newspaper: "Court Three is the last part of our previous 15-year plan and that was inaugurated this year. "The Olympic Games mean there will be no building next year, so we have time to think about what's been done and where we want to go over the next 10 to 15 years. A roof on Court One will be up for discussion."
