Wimbledon is set to relax its all-white dress code to allow female players to wear coloured underwear, following fresh criticism from Billie Jean King and Judy Murray that the rule creates anxiety for players when they are on their period.
The All England Club have banned players, both male and female, from wearing coloured underwear since 2014 as part of the traditional all-white policy, but discussions are underway over changing the rule ahead of next year’s Championships so that it only applies to the top layer of clothing.
