From City AM:
Tennis stars are descending on Wimbledon ahead of the start of the tournament next week, but many might be disappointed to find that winning one of the most acclaimed sporting competitions in the world could not even buy them a detached house in the local area.
While winners of the men's and women's singles titles are set for a £2.25m windfall, the average cost of a detached home in Wimbledon's SW19 postcode is a far higher £2.9m.
There was another article in City AM last week explaining that lucky home owners in SW19 will earn more by renting out their homes during Wimbledon fortnight than will be paid out in prize money, but I can't track that one down.
