The Wimbledon Championships will have full attendance in the center court for the men’s and women’s singles final. After a long discussion, the AELTC has decided that the men’s singles and women’s singles final will be played with 15,000 spectators in the center court while the rest of the matches will have 50% spectators.
The Wimbledon Championships had to be canceled last year due to the coronavirus. Fans missed out on the tournament and so did the players. This year, the UK government, with all necessary precautions, has decided to open up stadiums with certain precautions. The finals will be the first event to keep 100% capacity for spectators in the stadium since the pandemic began last March.
The men's and women's singles finals at Wimbledon to be played in front of a full crowd of 15,000 on Centre Court. Plans for 50 per cent capacity (21,000) across the grounds for the rest of the tournament as part of the test event programme. https://t.co/pyKEa6XXr2
