London: The Wimbledon championships came to a standstill on Tuesday as tennis-goers paused to remember the London bombings a decade ago. On July 7, 2005, four Islamist suicide bombers killed themselves and 52 innocent victims on three Underground trains and a bus.

The start of play on the outside courts was put back by 45 minutes from 11:00am (1000 GMT) to facilitate the observance of the national minute's silence at 11:30am.
