What’s the worst that can happen when playing tennis? 🎾 With Wimbledon starting this week we thought we’d take a look at our archive to see the types of tennis related claims our historic companies used to get. Well, alongside the usual slips and trips, including a clergyman who fell over a dog while playing tennis, we also found a claim for an AMPUTATED LEG in 1889! 😲 But it’s not all about tennis related injury claims. We also have alumni who played tennis at a very high level, including Sir Norman Brookes who won Wimbledon in 1907. Sir Norman was better known as ‘The Wizard (of Oz) and was chairman of the Australian board of directors at our heritage company North British and Mercantile. #Wimbledon
