With the opening day of Wimbledon barely a week away, a man who has never won a match on its courts is the hottest favourite since Jack Kramer turned professional. He is Peruvian Alejandro Olmedo, who two years ago came to the championships as a forlorn outsider, and went out ignominiously in the first round.

Today bookmakers are quoting even money about his chances of taking the singles title-a remark- able turnabout due to the fact that last winter he went to Australia and won back the Davis Cup for America virtually single-handed.

Picture here shows a 20-frames-a-second impression of Olmedo's service, which many experts say la modelled on that of Pancho Gonzales-London Express Photo.

WORLD'S ONLY PEN WITH "NO-DUNK" PILLINGI

Giving the greatest exhibition of lawn tennis seen from any British Blayer since Fred Perry, Bobby Wilson beat Chille's faneled champion Luis Ayala 6-1, 6-3, 7-5 in the opening match of the Davis Cup tie between Britain and Chilo last week, to pave the way 'Britain's eventual 3-2 victory.
