Latin American Field Day At Wimbledon In the Wimbledon finals, Alex Olmedo of Peru and the United States wins the world's most famous tennis trophy with 72 minutes of flawless play against Aussie Rod Laver. The men walk onto court. Match highlights. Handshakes after match point. Crowd (including some royals? -- looks like the queen or maybe Princess Margaret) stands up. Woman hands Olmedo his trophy. Next day, Brazil's Maria Bueno emerges as a superb contender winning the women's singles in straight sets from California's Darlene Hard. Women's highlights. Bueno (?) receives a big fancy plate. Two great matches in classic court competition.
