Inside Wimbledon: 66,000 balls, secret languages & wrestling with tradition
Gabby heads down to Wimbledon to take you behind the scenes of one of the world's most prestigious sporting events. From the practice courts to Murray Mount, we meet the man who coached Andy Murray to win Wimbledon, the US Open and the Olympics, Daniel Vallverdu, and the world number one doubles player, Marcelo Arevalo. We're joined by the person in charge of the 66,000 tennis balls, Andy Chevalier, and the hitting partner for Aryna Sabalenka and Venus Williams, Jessica Matthews. Plus, does tennis broadcaster Gigi Salmon think Jack Draper could go all the way? Can Emma Raducanu shake off the pressure? And how will Wimbledon look different this year?
