WIMBLEDON, England — The post-match interviews on Court 18 were not restricted to the winner on Wednesday.
Shortly after Nick Kyrgios answered queries on the grass in full swagger following his second-round victory, the Fanatics answered their own on a patch of lawn near the exits as television crews from Britain and beyond gathered around and requested another dose of enthusiasm.
Wimbledon is the biggest fish bowl in tennis, and the Fanatics — a group of nearly 30 green-and-gold-clad Australian fans — were delighted to keep swimming (and singing) for the cameras.
Who could blame them for being out of tune when some had spent the last three nights in tents, waiting for access to daily grounds passes in the Wimbledon queue?
