The Official Tennis of Sipsmith Gin

When the keys to Centre Court landed in the wing of Sipsmith's rather dapper brand ambassador, Mr Swan, his task of announcing the gin brand's new partnership with the Championships was never going to go to plan. In typical Swan-style, he mistakenly announces Wimbledon to be the "official tennis of Sipsmith Gin". It's not long before things snowball and Mr. Swan gets more and more carried away, claiming that everything iconic about Wimbledon – from the grass to the ball machines to the tournament's famous hawk – is now Officially Sipsmith's.
