The 34th edition of the Wimbledon Championships took place in 1910 on the grounds of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on Worple Road.
After the constant rain in the previous year made the paths on the site almost impassable through mud, it was decided to pave all paths before the 1910 tournament.
