Wimbledon's controversial plans to build 39 new tennis courts on protected open land opposite the All England Club has been approved by planning officials.
The All England Club wants to build the courts, including an 8,000-seat stadium, on Wimbledon Park.
Jules Pipe, the Deputy Mayor of London, decided that "significant" community and economic benefits of the scheme outweigh the harm.
Local residents and politicians fighting the proposal are now running out of options, but could still apply for a judicial review.
Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner has the power to hold a fresh planning hearing, but has made clear in a letter seen by BBC Sport that the application "should be determined at a local level".
