With Peter Seabrook at The National Vegetable Research Station

When Spencer Gore won the first men's title at Wimbledon in 1877 there was an entry of 22. This year the winner will emerge from 128 competitors, but who will it be? Can Arthur Ashe successfully defend his title or will Jimmy Connors be able to sustain his power tennis to the end of the tournament? The retirement of Billie Jean King and Margaret Court in the Ladies' Singles leaves it wide open to Evonne Cawley and Chris Evert, both of whom have already won the championship. From the Park Tennis Club, Nottingham, David Vine looks at the prospects for Wimbledon 76.
