Express: "Anger in Wimbledon as locals scared tennis could extend to 3 weeks after £200m expansion"

"...Anger in Wimbledon"


"Wimbledon locals have signalled their opposition to rumours that the tennis extended to last three weeks instead of two, as officials plan a £200million expansion of the All England Lawn and Tennis Club (AELTC), fearing construction, noise and damage to the environment. The proposal includes 38 new courts and an 8,000-seat show court on land adjacent to the current grounds - and residents, who think that that extra matches could be held there in future years."
