Talk:SW19

Confirmed
Yes, SW19 is indeed a postcode. However, it is much, much more than that. It's THE most famous postcode in the world? Surely SW19 should redirect to The Championships, Wimbledon? In the UK, when you hear somebody say SW19 - on the BBC or in the street - you can bet your bottom dollar they are referring to Wimbledon tennis. It's a standard British figure of speech. I mean, after all, it was founded in 1877 - 144 years ago. Here's an example: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/tennis/40545727 where the BBC reports as follows:

" 'Wimbledon 2017: Chris Eubank sings, SW19 ghosts & day-six funnies': Watch the quirkier moments from day six at Wimbledon, including Chris Eubank Sr's singing and we find out who the SW19 ghost is. ".
