Who Plays Where?
The Show Courts are Center Court, Court 1 and Court 2. For the first nine days of the tournament, top players are scheduled here. In 2005, during the first tournament days, Roddick, Sharapova, Federer, Safin, and the Williams sisters and other top names played at least one match on Courts 1 or 2. In the second week, half of the women's and men's quarters are played on Court 1. Marquee match-ups will be found on Courts 1 & 2 as well as Center Court. Enjoy unlimited access to the matches being played on courts 3-19, where seats are available first-come, first-served.

Why Don't We Stay in Wimbledon?
The town of Wimbledon, a suburb about 8 miles from London, offers few diversions outside of tennis. The London hotels chosen are close to Wimbledon--less than 30 minutes by Tube. We will escort you to Wimbledon on your first day of tennis. Guests at the Sloane Square and Sheraton Belgravia are just a few minutes from major museums, Harrod's and Harvey Nichols department stores. London theaters are 20 minutes by Tube.

When Does Play Start?
The first 8 days: 1:00 p.m., Center Court and Court 1; 12:00 noon, other courts. The second week: 1:00 p.m., Center Court; 12:00 noon or 1:00 p.m., other courts, depending on the number of matches to be played. The Grand Slam staff will advise you of any changes in starting times. Matches will continue until the day's schedule is completed or until dark (approximately 8:30 p.m.).

Is There a Rain Refund Policy?
The All England Club's rain refunds: no play taking place before 6:00 p.m.: a refund of 1/2 the face value of the ticket. No play at all: a full refund of the face value of the ticket. The face value will not cover the actual cost of the tickets in our packages. For a more substantial refund, Grand Slam Tennis Tours offers "RAIN INSURANCE," available for a nominal fee. The insurance is only paid if no play takes place the entire day. Ask your Grand Slam Tennis Tour agent for details.
