What fun! Former tennis pro Roger Federer (42) was allowed to watch the annual Wimbledon tournament with Princess Kate (41). The two, who share their love of tennis, are said to have been friends for a long time. That’s why he was invited to watch the tournament together with her and his wife Mirka in the Center Court Royal Box for the second day of the game. Now Roger reveals more details about his experience with the Princess of Wales.
“It was so fun sitting next to Princess Catherine. I know her quite well. She’s a keen tennis fan and also plays herself,” he told The Sun. But despite the positive words, the tennis player also admits that they had to be careful: “Sometimes we have to be careful not to talk too much,” Roger continued. Because there are strict rules for watching with a Royal Wimbledon. This includes a dress code and proper distance between royal and guest.
Australian world number one Rod Lavers (85) recently said that he had met Kate and her husband Prince William (41) a few times. He said: “They play tennis against each other. William told me he can’t beat them.”
