Betting on Federer

Roger Federer has a great many fans who will be urging him to victory at Wimbledon this week, but for some there are rather more pressing reasons to wish him success. A man who placed a bet that Federer would win seven Wimbledon titles by 2019 died before seeing whether or not his gamble would pay off. However, he bequeathed the betting slip to Oxfam in his will, meaning the charity will be eligible for any subsequent payout.
For the full story, see the BBC website:

Good luck Federer, and Oxfam!
