So extensive is 大象传媒 Sport's commitment to Wimbledon that its coverage of eight show courts for 2005 effectively amounts to eight separate outside broadcast operations, each with a minimum of three cameras (up to nine on Centre Court), a slow motion facility, a director with support staff, engineering and audio control, and a graphics organisation.

In 2004, 大象传媒 Sport transmitted 160 hours of coverage of Wimbledon in the UK on 大象传媒 ONE and 大象传媒 TWO, including a daily highlights programme in the evening. The UK audience for Tim Henman's match against Mark Philippoussis peaked at 11.3 million.

Play was televised for the first time in 1937, when matches were transmitted by the 大象传媒 from the Centre Court for up to half an hour each day of the meeting, but it was not until after the Second World War that they were televised each day.
