Bird-man of Wimbledon, etc? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

henman

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'wimbledon etc?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'bird-man' is the wordplay.
'bird' becomes 'hen' (hen is a kind of bird).
'hen'+'man'='HENMAN'

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for henman that I've seen before include "Former racketeer" , "Tim -, tennis player" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
