Fun Fact: There’s also a small farming neighbourhood in New Zealand called Wimbledon, which was named after Wimbledon, England in the 1880s after a local resident shot a bullock from a far distance. The shot was considered by onlookers to be worthy of the rifle-shooting championships held in Wimbledon at the time!
