Wimbledon organisers have been extremely busy trying to catch up on tennis matches after persistent rain washed away large parts of the tournament.
It comes as the All England Club has announced it will pay out more than £250,000 in refunds after much of Tuesday’s championship was cancelled due to rain.
Until 5 p.m., no play was performed on the outdoor courts and 75 of the 91 scheduled matches were canceled.
About 12 matches were postponed as showers fell on the pitch all day.
Thousands of £25 Ground Pass and £50 Court Two ticket holders – who were among the 34,922 fans in attendance – are entitled to the precious refunds.
Announcing the refund plan, the club said: ‘Ticket holders who purchased a No 2 Show Court ticket or a Grounds Pass before 5pm on Tuesday 9th July will be eligible for a full refund due to the rain delays and resulting match cancellations.’
However, it was said that it may take until the end of the month for the automatic refunds to be processed as the amounts involved are huge.
‘Given the high volume of refunds, it will take some time to process this, but we expect completion by the end of this month.
“We thank all affected ticket holders for their patience and understanding,” the Club added. It is thought that the number of eligible tickets will be in the region of 7,500, equating to more than a quarter of a million pounds in refunds.
The organization is busy working to clear the backlog of matches, after the tournament was largely plagued by bad weather, which resulted in almost 200 tennis matches being canceled.
Yesterday, play on the outdoor courts was moved forward one hour, to 10:30 am, to make up for the backlog.
The backlog has caused the early rounds of mixed doubles to be delayed considerably, forcing the club to move the mixed doubles final to Sunday. The women’s doubles final is on Saturday.
According to the Met Office, 52.6mm of rain has fallen in the first nine days of the championships, which is the equivalent of a month’s worth of rain. On Tuesday, 5.6mm of rain was recorded at nearby Kew Gardens.
