Ticket price equality for Wimbledon finals

Wimbledon is set to break with tradition and charge the same ticket prices for the men’s and women’s final at this year’s tournament.

The Times newspaper reported today the top prices for both finals will be £240.

In recent years tickets for the men’s final have been more expensive than the women’s final.

Last year fans were charged £200 to watch Ash Barty’s win over Karolina Pliskova while Novak Djokovic’s victory over Matteo Berrettini cost slightly more at £240 per ticket.
