The Championships, Wimbledon, or simply Wimbledon, is the most commonly referred to lawn tennis tournament, though there are many others throughout the world.

Extra: It is called a lawn tournament because it is played on grass that is cut extremely short. The game is slower-paced than on other surfaces and the type of ball used is different.
