London Biggin Hill airport recently welcomed Wimbledon ladies singles tennis champion Angelique Kerber following her victory over seven-time winner Serena Williams. Kerber is a NetJets owner and ambassador, and used the airport to fly home after attending the champions' dinner alongside men's victor Novak Djokovic.

She is the first German woman to win the title since Steffi Graf in 1996. Marketing manager Andy Patsalides says: "It was an honour to host Angelique Kerber after her fantastic win. London Biggin Hill is known as being the gateway to the capital for business aviation, so it is the number one choice every year for those attending or participating in Wimbledon, thanks to a six-minute shuttle to the centre of the city."
