Wimbledon is now the only Grand Slam played on GRASS, that's what's "different" about it... It's also considered the "Crown Jewel" of the Grand Slams... It's also the only Grand Slam where Royalty shows up, and where strawberries & cream are traditionally served...
The French Open is played on Clay, The Australian Open is played on a Synthetic Hard Court, The US Open is played on an Acrylic Hard Court...
Back in the day, ALL Grand Slams were played only on Grass, except for the French Open, which has always played only on Clay.
The US Open is the only Grand Slam to have been played on all 3 surfaces: Grass Court for nearly 100 years (1881--1974), Har-Tru Clay Court for just 3 years (1975--1977), and Acrylic Hard Court for the past 32 years (1978--Present)...
