Britons are very proud of this event. However, it is unusual that no British man has won the singles event at Wimbledon since Fred Perry in 1936, and no British woman since Virginia Wade in 1977. William Renshaw and
Pete Sampras both have the most number of men's singles championships which is 7. Martina Navratilova has 9 championships for women. Dark green and purple are the traditional Wimbledon colors. However, the tournament requires the players to wear “almost entirely white.” During games, female players are always called as Ms or Mrs; men are never called Mr.
