GENEVA, Switzerland, July 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Ahead of the Semi-Finals, ticket prices for the Wimbledon Men's Final have rocketed to a record $50,000 for a pair. 

viagogo spokesman Steve Roest said: "The extraordinary prices for Men's Finals tickets show just how important this result is to the British: Wimbledon is one of the crown jewels of the sporting calendar and the British public has been waiting for a home Champion for 77 years.

"Andy Murray is now just two games from the Wimbledon title and with his chances of victory stronger than ever, more and more people are considering paying five figure sums to witness British sporting history."
