Current Wimbledon Champion, Winner 2006

Men's Singles

Roger Federer (born August 8, 1981) is a Swiss professional tennis player whose achievements to date rank him among the most successful tennis players of all time. Federer is currently the World No. 1 ranked player and is already regarded by many, including his peers, as having the potential to be the greatest player of all time

He has been ranked number 1 since February 2004, and, as of September 2006, he holds the third-longest consecutive stay in the World No. 1. Only Jimmy Connors and Ivan Lendl have had longer unbroken streaks at number one. In 2004, Federer became the first man since Mats Wilander in 1988 to win three out of the four Grand Slam singles tournaments in the same year.

In 2006, Federer repeated this feat. He has won 9 Grand Slam men's singles titles in 30 appearances, 2 Tennis Masters Cup, and 11 ATP Masters Series singles titles. He is the only player in tennis history to have won both the Wimbledon and US Open's singles title in three consecutive years (2004-2006).

Women's Singles

Amélie Simone Mauresmo (born on 5 July 1979) is a French professional tennis player. She is the current women's World No. 1 and has won two Grand Slam singles titles, the 2006 Australian Open and 2006 Wimbledon.

Mauresmo first attained the top ranking on September 13, 2004, holding it for five weeks on that occasion. She was the 14th World No. 1 in women's tennis since the computer rankings began. She is well known for her powerful one-handed backhand (a rarity in women's tennis).

Wimbledon Travel: You can travel to Wimbledon by train from London. Other way that I prefer is to go to East Croydon (underground station) and from there take a tram to Wimbledon (20 minutes)
