Wimbledon’s pandemic insurance policy is reportedly worth a ton of money.

The famous annual tennis event was canceled this year because of coronavirus, but the bank account will be just fine.

According to Darren Rovell, Wimbledon has been paying $2 million a year for pandemic insurance the past 17 years, and now the policy will pay out $141 million.

It’s a good thing they did too because Wimbledon now has $141 million coming its way, despite the fact not a single tennis match will be played.
