History
The relationship between Wimbledon and the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) dates back to the formation of the governing body in 1888, at which point the All England Club passed over the guardianship of the national game.
Funds generated by The Championships, are used by the LTA to develop tennis in Great Britain.
