The Saturday night and Wednesday night session tickets have all been sold out, and the Sunday final itself is ready to have the biggest showdown with all the tickets sold out. Meanwhile, the other matches remaining, including the first match of the tournament that will take place on Sunday, along with the Friday day and night sessions, only have one unsold ticket left.
Apparently, there have been a lot of instances where players play in an empty arena. For players like Alcaraz, who will play his first tournament, having a full crowd can be like the cherry on the cake.
However, as the 2023 Wimbledon champion will make his debut this year, there are a lot of expectations from him. Apart from him, players, including the Serb, are ready to grab the title once again. Meanwhile, nearly a month ago, the sale of tickets to the tune of a whopping $15,000,000 surfaced on the internet.
