Wimbledon maintains traditional colours and white attire for players

Wimbledon features a distinct purple and green colour scheme, trademarked in 2016, representing its identity since 1909. The change from a previous red, blue, yellow, and green array is believed to have been influenced by associations with the Royal Marines. The colours are often thought to symbolize the grass courts and the royal presence at the tournament. Players traditionally wear white outfits, a nod to Victorian customs aimed at concealing sweat. This practice endures as part of Wimbledon's storied traditions.
