Wimbledon desperately needs to expand to catch up with sprawling Australian Open

Summary

Total attendance at the Australian Open reached 1.1 million , including qualifying week , including the child-friendly Topcourt area near the Yarra River .

Now Tiley ’s grand designs are heaping extra pressure on the All England Club , as they strive to add another 73 extra acres to their bijou 42-acre site.

The planned expansion into neighbouring Wimbledon Park Golf Course has been inching along for seven years , but despite a positive planning verdict in September , it remains stuck in development hell.

SWP campaigners remain confident that they can nix the whole project through their latest legal challenges.

Such an outcome would condemn Wimbledon to a slow decline towards heritage status.

The less constrained majors especially in Melbourne and New York will gradually eclipse their old-world counterparts, largely on the grounds of space.

The Americans have won 352 majors, the Australians 166 , and Great Britain 98 .
