No sooner has one event finished does another begin, and
this week is the turn of the Wimbledon tennis championships. As us English fans
gear ourselves up for two weeks of strawberries and cream, Robinsons orange
squash and prayers to the weather gods for sun, the world’s best in the land of
tennis descend upon this quaint little suburb of London.
Not traditionally known for its glamour, this year the
competition is to be given its own injection of charm, as presented by Sportsmail
photographer Andy Hooper, who photographed some of the female stars. Bethanie Mattek-Sands
(pictured above) is one of the figures who has captured the attention of
Wimbledon viewers over the past few years. Dubbed the Lady Gaga of tennis, it was
last year’s competition that saw her make her biggest mark on the fashion
world, in an outfit from the British designer Alex Noble, who has also been
responsible for some of Gaga’s most notorious costumes.
As well as keeping a keen eye on some of the more audaciously
dressed players of the competition, we shall be giving you an insight into how
to dress tennis tremendous over the next week, just in case you might be
hotfooting it down to the courts.
