Many people view Manic Monday – Day 7 at Wimbledon – as the greatest day in the entire tennis calendar.
Yes, seasoned tennis-lovers often pick it as the most special day of all – ahead of the finals at Wimbledon, Roland Garros, Flushing Meadows or Melbourne.

What, we hear you say? How can that be? After all, on the face of it, Manic Monday is just the half-way stage in a tournament where the biggest drama is yet to come.

Unless your most loved tennis superstar has suffered the shock of an early-round knockout.
You’ll be able to watch him or her on Centre Court or Court One at the All England Club on Manic Monday.
That’s because ALL fourth-round (or round-of-16) matches in the men’s and women’s singles are played on the SAME DAY.
That’s what makes Wimbledon so unique!
No wonder they call it Manic Monday! So many glittering stars to fit onto the show courts. How do they find the time? It’s crazy!
And it’s also one good reason why Wimbledon sees fit to take the previous day – the middle Sunday – off. They know what’s coming. And it just adds to the burning anticipation!
Buy tickets for Centre Court AND Court One for that day and you will surely see the greatest players in action. You can switch courts at will, take in the very best of the drama – and have memories of your favourites to cherish forever.

It’s almost hard to imagine so much excellence in one place at one time, isn’t it?
So let’s take a quick look at what Manic Monday had to offer at Wimbledon 2019:
Centre Court.
Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer showed their respective power and grace with convincing victories on Manic Monday. Yet Jo Konta caused most excitement with a dramatic 4-6, 6-2, 6-4 win over two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova, defying the predictions of many experts.
No1 Court.
Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic marched on in style but the big story was the end of the dream for 15-year-old Coco Gauff. When she looks back, she will be able to console herself with the thought that her 3-6, 3-6 reverse happened against the eventual Ladies’ champion, Simona Halep.
It doesn’t happen anywhere else in the world. The sporting riches on offer on Manic Monday are truly mind-boggling.
