The Championships Wimbledon was brought to the public for the first time, to nearly 200 theaters, in 3D; this was a very special event that occurred on Wimbledon’s 125th anniversary.
Maria Sharapova and Petra Kvitova filled the 3D screen for the ladies’ final of the third Grand Slam event of the year. Sharapova’s screams and the sounds of Kvitova pounding the ball were realistic, just as if the two women were actually playing the final in the theater room.
This was a breakthrough for technology, as the event was aired live, and in 3D, in theaters. Other sporting events have been aired in 3D, but this event was the most well-known, and the most successful, as it was aired in countries ranging from England to Uruguay.
If you are looking for somewhere to watch Wimbledon live streamed on your computer, well look no further than ESPN3.com. ESPN3.com will have free live streaming for the whole of the championships.

Tonight is the night for British tennis. Andy Murray has beaten some great players in the last two weeks, including Raphael Nadal, but is it time that he stepped forward and took a Grand Slam title?
Murray will be facing Roger Federer in about two hours time and of course Murray will be the underdog, but we will see if there is fight still left in the dog.
Andy played some of the best tennis he has ever played, in the semi final against Raphael Nadal. It will be a big tasks for him to back it up again against Roger in the final, but I’m not too sure he can!
Over the last six months to a year Murray has made a lot of progress on his fitness and this is starting to show in his tournament results. Somehow, according to the rankings he is already the number 4 player in the world (which I don’t think is entirely correct), but he has earned his spot in the top ten, and this could be the night a Brit proves something to critics.
