Wimbledon slapped with £250,000 bill after being forced to change finals weekend

Wimbledon organisers are facing a hefty bill to repay fans who missed out on watching matches due to heavy rain during the tournament. The All England Lawn Tennis Club will be handing out refunds to the tune of £250,000 after a downpour in southwest London resulted in matches being postponed on Tuesday at SW19, with an amendment to the schedule of finals this weekend.

There was no play on the outside courts until 5pm and 75 of the 91 scheduled matches were cancelled. This meant that ticketholders with ground passes and tickets to Court No. 2 were not only left soaked from the weather but also unable to watch any of the action.
