While Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, and Roger Federer practiced on a Wimbledon court during their visit to The Championships, Middleton, acting as a ball boy, caught a ball before letting it bounce once, which is against the rules of the prestigious Grand Grass slam.
“The differences between us and the @australianopen, told by @rogerfederer and our Ball Girl Mollie…” Wimbledon captioned the video. Roger Federer and Kate Middleton visited Wimbledon “to shed light on what it’s like to be a ball boy at Wimbledon.”
Roger Federer met with Kate after a conversation on Twitter
Earlier this week, Roger Federer told the Prince and Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton and William, that he would be delighted to join them in playing tennis at Wimbledon.
Breaking news or not, Federer is a well-regarded friend of the Royal Family. Virginia Wade, a British tennis legend, revealed last year that the Queen “knew everything about Federer.”
“The next time she came to Wimbledon was in 2010 and there was a very select group of us sitting down having lunch with her. There were three Wimbledon women’s champions and Roger Federer and his wife. Roger was on the Queen’s right and I was on the left. .
Everyone had big eyes, but it was wonderful to see Federer so enthralled with what she was saying. We had a very deep and varied conversation, and she knew everything about tennis. She knew everything about Roger, and I think about me too,” Wade wrote for Eurosport in September.
Roger Federer comes from an act at the ATP in Halle, where he received a tribute for his career and victories in the German tournament. Now, the Swiss will receive a new act at Wimbledon, which begins next week.
