Wimbledon Watch Party!
As the world's most famous tennis tournament takes place, the British Embassy held a Wimbledon watch party Friday. The event was a partnership between the embassy, the upcoming Citi Open Tennis Tournament and the Washington Kastles, D.C.'s World Team Tennis club. Duke’s Grocery served a full English breakfast with bangers and mash, bacon, baked beans, tomatoes and mushrooms. Snapped: Washington Kastles GM Kevin Wynne, British Ambassador to the U.S. Sir Kim Darroch and Citi Open Tournament Director Keely O’Brien.
The Citi Open and Washngton Kastles teams come together, wearing the traditional all-white dress, to watch the tournament at the All-England Lawn and Tennis Club in London.
Guests enjoyed a Buck’s Fizz (a British twist on a mimosa) and strawberries and minted cream (a Wimbledon tradition).
