With shocks galore in the women's draw and record-setting epic matches in the men's semi-finals, The Championships 2018 will be remembered for a long time and Wimbledon 2018: The Official Story of The Championships is the comprehensive, entertaining and beautifully illustrated re-telling of a spell-binding fortnight of tennis at the All England Club. Paul Newman's crafted text, coupled with the stunning images captured by Wimbledon's team of award winning photograpers, provides readers with a wonderful review of a memorable fortnight played out under blue skies and on stunningly green courts. Following the full story of the tournament, from Qualifying through to the concluding Mixed Doubles Final on Centre Court, and telling the journeys of established stars such as Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Serena Williams and Angelique Kerber the book also focuses on some of the other stories and characters that make Wimbledon so colourful.... from Kevin Anderson and John Isner's marathon match to Jack Draper's mesmerising semi-final in the Boys' event... and includes daily features and light-hearted stories such as the fan who came dressed as a Wimbledon trophy!
