Wimbledon’s expansion plan in High Court after local residents react with fury

Novak Djokovic calls it “win-win”. Carlos Alcaraz says it is a “great idea”.

It has a meaning – Wimbledon’s big expansion plan is impressive.

It involves adding a stadium of 8,000 people with a retracted roof to start.

Later, there are 38 other lawn courts in an old golf field that will allow All England Club to move and keep it in place.

This is what other Grand Slam tournaments do and will increase participation and income for the club.

Some local residents have made a deep dive into the details and they are not as convinced as the great champions.

For this reason, as the quarter finals are held in the tournament that ends next weekend, the proposal goes to the UK Supreme Court for a judicial examination on Tuesday and Wednesday.

The competitors say that during the two -week event, Wimbledon’s well -known postal code, SW19, said they love about 500,000 admirers.

Susan Cusack, a member of Save Wimbledon Park, said, “But we also like the environment, trees, greens and open spaces.”

This says that Wimbledon’s project collected more than 270,000 dollars to pay for what the group and lawyers who challenged the approval of the Great London authority last September to pay for what Cusack and others call it “industrial tennis complex”.

“They are a great developer. All they do on their current sites is to build, build,” Cusack said.

In addition to concerns about the environment and general scale, competitors defend the adjacent property, a golf field purchased by All England Club in 2018.

Wimbledon’s expansion case

The oldest Grand Slam Tournament is one of the four people holding qualifying tours in a completely separate place. In the current installation, there are very few application courts that require some of the best players of the world to share the courts.

“Wimbledon needs to remain at the summit of world sport and you should develop in court and in court to do so, DE

Wimbledon’s participation numbers are the other three main branches. After Australia has brought more than 115,000 in the elimination week, it sold 1.1 million tickets for this year’s main lottery – Double Wimbledon’s 2024 gang. Wimbledon’s Roehpton has a total of 8,000 tickets for qualification three miles away.

French open, 80,000 fans for qualifiers. Fans can watch Star Player applications in addition to the mini tournament played by the competitors for the greedy points in single brackets.

Wimbledon’s project would allow 8,000 spectators a day.

“If you look at other Grand Slam, there will be community activities during the first week … And of course serious tennis,” Jevans said. “That’s why we always start with tennis, but yes, I want the opportunity to embrace more people. The demand for our tickets is out of the graphics.”

After a 8,000 Arena, Central Court and Court No. 1, Wimbledon’s third largest stadium will be; He would be right opposite the court number 1.

Wimbledon’s plan, which is currently used for the famous tail, will be more than twice the total number of grass fields – there are currently 18 for the tournament and 20 for the application.

Jevans, the proposed new courts “at least seven” will be offered to the community use, he said. The plan also includes two public parks, one of which is 23 acres.

The club rejected the comment on the price tag of the project, which the British media will be about 270 million dollars.

Supports Djokovic and Alcaraz Wimbledon’s plans

If the plan is saved from legal challenges, there is still an eight -year construction window. This should exclude Djokovic’s chances of competing in new courts. However, the Wimbledon champion still wants the plan to succeed.

Thursday, “The community is great for London, for our sport. To be honest, it’s a win-win.

When Wimbledon first released in 2014, Belinda Bencic, 17 years old, said on Saturday that the club is trying to invest and do the best for players ”.

“This is a great idea by putting a really close (qualified) where we are currently,” the defense champion Alcaraz said twice.

Whatever Djokovic is, Wimbledon’s future is safe.

“Wimbledon, like already, is a sacred tournament, a tournament that everyone wants to win or play,” he said. “This is just a bonus. This is something that will reach a higher level of recognition.”
