Wimbledon is one of the most prestigious events in tennis. The world waits with bated breath to watch the action unfold on the grass court. Several players have stepped up, but not many have emerged triumphant. Even fewer have won the championship multiple times. However, no one holds the record of Martina Navratilova at Wimbledon. She has won the tournament nine times, a fact shown off by her wife, Julia Lemigova.
