Rain Shortens Monday at The AEGON International – Gallery

Monday at the 2015 AEGON International in Eastbourne had plenty of typical British weather in store as persistent rain caused the third day of the tournament to start with a five-hour delay.

Tennis fans in Devonshire Park needed lots of patience and waterproof clothing today as persistent rain in the morning ruined any chance of play getting underway as planned. The conditions got even worse around noon as torrential rainfalls kept players away from the courts for hours.
