does number 1 court at wimbledon have a roof
No. 1 Court (Wimbledon) In April 2013, the All England Club confirmed its intention to build a retractable roof over No.1 Court. The roof is expected to be in place for the 2019 Championships.[6][7]
The Championships, Wimbledon Since 2001, the courts used for Wimbledon have been sown with 100% perennial ryegrass. Prior to 2001 a combination of 70% ryegrass and 30% Creeping Red Fescue was used. The change was made to improve durability and strengthen the sward to better withstand the increasing wear of the modern game.[29][30]
Centre Court The roof's ten trusses each weigh 100 tonnes, and the total weight, including non-moving parts, is 3,000 tonnes. The total area of the roof when fully deployed is 5,200 m2.[21] The cost of the roof has not been disclosed by the Club, but is estimated at £80–£100 million.[22] Another retractable roof is planned for No. 1 Court and due to be completed in 2019.
