This year's Wimbledon tennis tournament hadn't even started when the first clothing controversy erupted.
It began early last week, during the qualifying rounds leading up to the tourney, when several Nike-outfitted female players wore wispy dresses that looked a lot like nighties. Nike reportedly had about 20 players return the dresses for alterations before the tournament started, but early-round matches still showed the dress design not leaving much to the imagination, and several players weren't happy with it.
Apparel scandals are nothing new at Wimbledon, whose infamous dress code almost dares players and their outfitters to push the envelope to get attention.
