Wimbledon’s Newest Champion: Princess of Wales Presents Trophy to Carlos Alcaraz
The Princess of Wales beamed with joy as she presented the winner's trophy to Wimbledon's newest champion, Carlos Alcaraz, following an intense final at SW19.
In a stunning display of elegance, she complemented her exquisite 750-pound emerald Roland Marat frock with a pair of earrings in a matching hue for the tournament's grand finale.
With grace and poise, she congratulated the victorious player before stepping back to applaud his remarkable achievement.
Before fulfilling her duties as the patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, Princess Catherine graciously offered her sympathies to Alcaraz's opponent, Novak Djokovic, who humbly accepted the award with a bow of his head.
The princess was warmly welcomed with a resounding round of applause as she engaged with the ball kids, exchanging handshakes and friendly conversations with each of them as they awaited her arrival to present the trophies.
Her genuine connection with the young individuals court-side was evident to all, with many of them visibly delighted as she made her way down the line, extending a handshake to each one.
Accompanied by her children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, as well as her husband, Prince William, Princess Catherine graced the final day of the tournament at SW19.
Princess Charlotte sported stylish pink sunglasses while seated next to her brother, who looked regal in a navy suit, both fully immersed in the thrilling tennis matches.
As the royal family departed from the club, they waved to adoring fans below while crossing the bridge, concluding their memorable day at Wimbledon.
Princess Kate, a dedicated patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club since 2016, had previously attended the tournament twice this season, witnessing Wondrosova of the Czech Republic claim the Venus Rosewater Dish.
Carlos Alcaraz's historic victory marks a significant milestone as he becomes the first player outside the renowned Big Four – Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Murray – to clinch the men's singles title since 2002.
This triumph follows his inaugural Grand Slam win at the US Open last year, solidifying his status as a rising star in the world of tennis.
