winning the championship and any player who had won four or more doubles titles to a presentation ceremony on Centre Court on Saturday July 1 Each honouree was presented with a crystal plate engraved with their name by the President of the Lawn Tennis Association Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Gloucester Those who attended were in order of presentation Singles champion Andre Agassi Doubles champions Ken McGregor Bob Hewitt Ken Fletcher Tony Roche Rosie Casals Owen Davidson Frew McMillan Peter Fleming Pam Shriver Helena Sukova Natasha Zvereva Gigi Fernandez Singles finalists Henry Bunny

then presented with their commemoration later in the same day in the Royal Box Doubles champions Mark Woodforde Todd Woodbridge Singles finalist Arantxa Sanchez Vicario and Singles champions Martina Hingis and Pete Sampras Several post war champions were absent but the only champions from the open era post 1968 not to attend were Jimmy Connors and Richard Krajicek Both Ilie Năstase and Ivan Lendl were also invited as two time singles finalist but did not attend 3 The inclusion of singles finalists and the exclusion of doubles champions who had not won at least four titles was mildly controversial with Frew McMillan bemoaning to BBC Radio that his two time mixed doubles championship partner Betty Stove had not been invited despite the Dutch woman holding three Wimbledon doubles titles and having reached the singles final once whereas Hana Mandlikova and Goran Ivanisevic both attended neither one of whom had ever won a Wimbledon title of any kind prior to Wimbledon 2000 Prize
