While fans nibble strawberries in the Wimbledon sun for the men's semi-finals today, one organisation has highlighted the dark side of Britain's world-famous tennis tournament.
According to Employment Law Advisory Services (Elas), businesses are set to lose a whopping £50 million today alone, as record numbers of the British workforce are expected to take the day off work to watch Scot Andy Murray thrash it out against American Andy Roddick.
Representative for the group Peter Mooney explained that today will see more cases of 'that Friday feeling' than ever before.
'Our evidence suggests that more and more workers see the good weather on a Friday afternoon as too good an opportunity to miss and this combined with the tennis is not good for employers,' he added.
Last year's tournament saw Murray lose out to the trophy at the 11th hour to his Spanish rival Rafael Nadal - an incident that will not recur this year as the latter refrained from entering due to an injury.
