Kate Presents Both Wimbledon Trophies as William, George and Charlotte Join Finals

The Princess of Wales’s on‑court awards and a family Centre Court appearance highlight the monarchy’s ceremonial role following Kate’s cancer recovery.

Overview

  • The Princess of Wales presented the Gentlemen’s Singles Trophy to Jannik Sinner after his four‑set win over Alexander Zverev on Sunday, July 12.
  • A day earlier, on Saturday, July 11, Kate handed the Venus Rosewater Dish to Linda Nosková after the Czech player won the women’s singles final.
  • Prince William attended the men’s final with the couple’s two eldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, while the youngest child, Prince Louis, was not present.
  • The Wales family met players and behind‑the‑scenes staff courtside, including a noted exchange in which Kate gave British wildcard Arthur Fery a birthday card and a staff member quoted her saying Louis asked about becoming a ball boy; that anecdote is sourced to a single staff remark.
  • Kate has served as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club since 2016 and has regularly carried out trophy‑presentation duties since 2019, making these appearances a continuation of royal tradition and a visible step in her return to public engagements.
