Andy Roddick sits down with British tennis legend and All England Club board member Tim Henman for a look inside the most iconic tournament in the sport. As the tennis world turns its eyes to Wimbledon, Henman pulls back the curtain on the complex, behind-the-scenes decision-making at Wimbledon—from the controversial wildcard process for top stars and rising prospects to the delicate balance of maintaining 150 years of tradition while modernizing the grounds. The two discuss the reality of the grass-court season, including the impact of surface quality and equipment on the modern game, while reminiscing about their own high-pressure battles on Centre Court against legends like Pete Sampras.
