She was noted for her elegant, graceful court presence and her sublime yet subtle repertoire of shots.[LNB]29 Suzanne Lenglen With 15 Wimbledon titles to her name and half of one of the hallmark matches in Wimbledon history (the 1920 final with Dorothea Douglass Lambert Chambers), the Frenchwoman also shocked crowds by playing with bare arms and drinking brandy between sets.[LNB] French flair: Bare-armed Suzanne Lenglen was a trailblazer[LNB]28 Margaret Court Whilst only three of her 24 singles Grand Slam titles came at Wimbledon, the Western Australian (right) was seeded in all 12 of her tournaments in the Sixties and early Seventies, and lost just nine matches on the grass courts of SW19. [LNB]27 Dorothea Douglass Lambert Chambers Her 6-0, 6-0 victory in 1911 over Dora Boothby is the only one at Wimbledon where no games were dropped, and coupled with her six other SW19 crowns, makes Lambert Chambers the most successful British female Wimbledon competitor.[LNB] Spanning the ages: Lambert Chambers (left) and French showman Leconte[LNB]26 Henri Leconte The 6ft-plus Frenchman's best result at Wimbledon was his semi-final appearance in 1986, but to get there he produced his best ever tennis to lift him to a career high No 5 in the world. Loved for being one of the sport's great showmen who entertained for many years in seniors events after his pro retirement.[LNB]25 Stefan Edberg The Swede triumphed in 1988 and 1990 at Wimbledon, and played in the longest final at SW19, a two day match-up against Becker in 1988 due to rain delays. [LNB] Gold standard: Pat Cash (left) and Stefan Edberg celebrate Wimbledon glory[LNB]24 Pat Cash The outgoing Australian claimed the top prize at the All England Club for the only time in his career in 1987. But, complete with iconic headband, he made sure no one would forget as he started the trend of going straight to the players box to celebrate with his family, after defeating the No 1 seed Lendl.[LNB]23 Rafael Nadal Treated us to a breathtaking five-set final last year with Roger Federer, where he stood on ceremony as well as the scoreboard. The Spanish superstar is disappointingly absent this year, but one suspects there will be many more great Wimbledon moments to come for the 23-year-old.[LNB][LNB][LNB] Enlarge Walking tall: Rafael Nadal celebrates winning the memorable men's final last year[LNB] Serving up a treat: Venus Williams begins her quest for a sixth Wimbledon crown this year[LNB]22 Venus Williams With five Wimbledon singles titles and three doubles crowns, Venus is one of the few players to have won singles and doubles titles in the same year. In 2008, she was victorious in both disciplines without dropping a set in either tournament.[LNB]21 Lottie Dod When not competing up to a national standard in golf, archery and hockey, Dod (left) found time to win five Wimbledon titles, claiming her first as a 15-year-old in 1887 when beating Blanche Bingley.[LNB]THE BEST OF THE REST OF THE LISTSportsmail's top 50 commentators of all timeSportsmail's top 50 sporting venuesSportsmail's top 50 free-kick kingsSportsmail's top 50 England heroesSportsmail's top 50 performers of the season so farSportsmail's top 50 all-time managers in BritainSportsmail's top 50 goal poachersSportsmail's top 50 footballing traitorsSportsmail's top 50 FA Cup heroesSportsmail's top 50 signings of the season Sportsmail's greatest Wembley finals in historySportsmail's top 50 biggest hitters in cricketSportsmail's top 50 British & Irish Lions Explore more:People:Pat Cash, Venus Williams, Roger Federer, Rafael NadalPlaces:LondonOrganisations:All England Club, Centre Court
