The Lawn Tennis Championships from the All England Club First on Centre Court this afternoon is
MARTINA NAVRATILOVA who begins the defence of her singles title. The world's finest woman player needs one more title to equal the record of eight championships set between the wars by the' great Helen Wills Moody. Martina's perennial rival
CHRIS EVERT will be trying to add to her own tally of three titles, but many believe that STEFFI GRAF will pose a bigger threat. The West German is learning to cope with the attention normally reserved for her compatriot Boris Becker , and earlier this month she won her first Grand Slam title at the French Open.
