THIS year’s Wimbledon championships is now UNDERWAY – but fans will be sad to see Sue Barker not at the forefront of BBC’s coverage.
Barker, 66, announced in 2022 that she was stepping down from her presenting role after 30 years covering SW19 action.
The former Wimbledon semi-finalist has anchored the coverage since 2000, having first joined the team seven years earlier.
Betfair have Clare Balding as the short-priced favourite to take the reins as the main face of the championship’s coverage.
Barker revealed the hours were becoming very tough and challenging as she worked through her sixties.
