Maybe the stencils got slightly mixed up. Or perhaps the person who stenciled "London 2102" on an umpire stand at Wimbledon, the Olympics venue for tennis, was guessing when a British man would finally take the Grand Slam title. Whatever the case, the transposing of numbers at the All England Club was realized Tuesday and has been corrected.

Earlier this month, Andy Murray of Scotland became the first British man to reach the Wimbledon final since 1938. He lost in four sets to Roger Federer for the Swiss player's 17th Grand Slam title. The last British champion was Fred Perry in 1936.
