Wimbledon players were once forced to compete at the iconic tournament without a bra in 2014 as the strict archaic clothing rule has been scrutinised once again this year.
The all-white clothing rule and rigid regulations concerning attire has been under the microscope throughout these Championships, with a number of female players declaring the rules are out of touch with modern times. The ruling means all player s must adhere to all-white clothing, including undergarments and bras.
Citing the ruling, the official states: “Any undergarments that either are or can be visible during play (including due to perspiration) must also be completely white except for a single trim of colour no wider than one centimetre (10mm).”
