The Top Gun actor wore a dapper navy blue suit for the occasion as he observed the ladies’ singles match on Centre Court – where Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina triumphed over Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur in the battle to become champion.

Also in attendance on Saturday was the Duchess of Cambridge, who wore an eye-catching yellow dress paired with large black sunglasses, particularly fitting for the July sunshine.

The duchess sat next to All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC) chairman Ian Hewitt in the Royal Box to witness Rybakina make history in becoming Kazakhstan’s first grand slam singles winner.

She later presented 23-year-old Rybakina with the The Venus Rosewater Dish and spoke to ground staff on the court.

Other stars at the sporting event included Ellie Goulding and Dame Maggie Smith.
