(CNN) -- Organizers of this year's Wimbledon tennis championships have decided to kick football firmly into the long grass.
The All England Lawn Tennis Club has declared the tournament a "World Cup-free zone" and is refusing to show matches from the showpiece in South Africa on their big screen or in any other public areas.
Wimbledon runs from June 21 to July 4, while the World Cup starts on June 11 and ends one month later.
Wimbledon chiefs are determined that fans who enter the grounds of the famous southwest London venue are focused on only one sport.
"This is arguably the leading tennis tournament in the world and people come here to watch tennis," said Tim Phillips, chairman of the All England Club.
"If people want to watch the World Cup they should go to South Africa or watch it on the TV."
Zelfs hier lukt het je nog niet om top 10 te eindigen...
