The trophy given by Kate Middleton.
Patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, which organizes the Wimbledon tennis tournament, Kate Middleton traditionally sits in the stands to watch the matches or on court to present the trophies to the big winners of the men’s and women’s finals.
But while the Princess of Wales has significantly reduced her public appearances since announcing her cancer last March, tournament organizers do not know if they will be able to count on her this year. All England Club president Debbie Jeavance however announced Telegraph: wanting to give Kate Middleton “as much flexibility as possible” without ruling out a possible arrival. The choice of the person presenting the trophies may not be made until the morning of the final, which will take place on Sunday July 13.
