EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Mary Evans Sports collection, we are transported back to the Wimbledon Championships of 2012. The image captures an intriguing trio - Hacker, Imogen Davis, and Rufus The Hawk - against the backdrop of the prestigious All England Tennis Club in London. The focal point of the picture is undoubtedly Rufus The Hawk, a beloved member of Wimbledon's security team. However, on this particular day in 2012, he was at the center of a shocking incident when he was stolen from his cage overnight. This unexpected turn of events adds an air of mystery and suspense to an otherwise ordinary tennis tournament. Imogen Davis can be seen standing beside Rufus with a concerned expression on her face. As part of Wimbledon's dedicated security staff, she played a crucial role in ensuring that players and spectators alike felt safe throughout the championships. Hacker completes this unique trio captured by Mary Evans Picture Library. While not much information is provided about him or his connection to Rufus and Imogen, one can only speculate about their shared mission to recover Rufus after his theft. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst grand sporting events like Wimbledon, unexpected stories unfold behind-the-scenes. It invites us to reflect on those who work tirelessly behind closed doors to make such events possible while also reminding us that heroes come in all shapes and sizes – even hawks named Rufus!
