Wimbledon tennis stars blast slippery grass during wettest championship in a decade
Sperry Boat Shoes for Men, Women, & Kids | Sperry
Tennis stars have taken a tumble while playing at Wimbledon for a second day after heavy rain led to slippery grass in the wettest start to the grand slam in 'almost a decade'. Novak Djokovic, Kei Nishikori, John Isner and Bianca Andreescu slipped while playing on grasscourts during the legendary London-based tournament - a day after US tennis superstar Serena Williams was forced to retire when she fell over on Centre Court and appeared to hurt her ankle. Sir Andy Murray and Coco Gauff were among those to comment on the surface yesterday, while eight-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer said he had previously found the surface to be more slippery when the stadium roof was shut due to a build up of humidity. A Wimbledon spokesman has defended itself against criticism of its grass, claiming the club was satisfied with the quality of the surface and that it had been the wettest start to a tournament 'in almost a decade'. Mr Federer said this year's problems are not new.
