Detailed Analysis:
- Claim: Technology editor Zoe Kleinman explores the tensions between humans and machines that were encapsulated at Wimbledon.
- Verification Source #1, #2, #3, #4, and #5: These sources do not directly cover this claim.

- Verification Source #5: The New York Times article discusses the shift in trust from government to technology, which is a broader concept but could be relevant to the discussion of trust in technology in sports. However, it does not specifically address the tensions at Wimbledon.
