Correct answer
Explanation
The No. 2 Court at Wimbledon earned the nickname 'Graveyard of Champions' because many top-seeded players and former champions have suffered unexpected upsets there. Unlike the more prestigious Centre Court or Court 1, this court became notorious for toppling favorites in early rounds. The nickname reflects the court's reputation for producing surprising defeats rather than celebrating victories.
