Man sleeps overnight on a dog bed in queue for Wimbledon tickets
A dedicated Wimbledon fan spent the night sleeping on a dog bed in the queue to secure tickets for the tournament's opening day.
The fan described the sleep as "dreadful" after waiting seven hours on Monday, battling scorching heat.
He was hopeful of securing a ticket and expressed excitement at the prospect of seeing Novak Djokovic play.
The opening day of the tournament saw sweltering temperatures of 33C, which led to Carlos Alcaraz’s match being interrupted for a spectator requiring medical assistance.
