Wimbledon recently celebrated the centenary of the iconic Center Court by hosting a ceremony featuring all the previous winners of the tournament. Among them was Stefan Edberg, the former Swedish pro who won six Grand Slam singles titles and three Grand Slam men’s doubles titles, including two in the hallowed gardens of SW19.
The 56-year-old spoke about his Wimbledon memories, those that inspired him to his title victories in 1988 and 1990.
“Personally, this is the place I would go back to if I had to choose one place. Since I grew up seeing [Bjorn] Borg winning his five titles here to play here myself, winning [the title]. You always feel welcome when you come back to Wimbledon,” said Edberg.
