Davies shows the view of Centre Court from the top of the Hill. The term “Henman Hill” derives from the former British top 10 player, Tim Henman, who competed at Wimbledon in the late 1990s and early 2000s. During his career, British tennis supporters packed onto the Hill behind No.1 Court to watch and cheer Henman on as he appeared on the big screen time and time again, therefore giving this popular gathering place its nickname.
