Golf stars took a break from their busy schedules to enjoy Wimbledon.
With the Scottish Open, Evian Championship, and other major tournaments coming up, many top golfers are gearing up for intense competition.
Before diving back into golf, several players relaxed at Wimbledon, soaking in the atmosphere of this iconic tennis event .
Justin Rose and his wife Kate were spotted in the Royal Box on day three. They watched Daniil Medvedev beat Alexandre Muller, Emma Navarro triumph over Naomi Osaka, and Jannik Sinner narrowly defeat Matteo Berrettini in an exciting match. After playing 36 holes to qualify for the Open at Royal Troon just a day before, Rose tweeted: “One of my favourite days of the year @Wimbledon. My body is still recovering from those 36 holes yesterday!! Thank you again for all the support.”

Ludvig Aberg didn’t need to qualify for Royal Troon. He was seen with his girlfriend Olivia on Centre Court watching Carlos Alcaraz win against Ugo Humbert and Emma Radacanu lose to Lulu Sun. Aberg joked on Instagram about wanting to hit a golf shot off Wimbledon’s grass court: “Me and @olivia_jorgipeet at @wimbledon. Kinda wanted to hit a full 60 off the grass court. Thank you @rolex!”
Star-Studded Audience:
Wimbledon also attracted big names from various sports. Pep Guardiola, Sachin Tendulkar, Sir Jason Kenny with Dame Laura Kenny (cycling), Leah Williamson (football), Sir Ben Ainslie (sailing), and Charley Hull were all present in the VIP seats.
Hull shared her excitement on Instagram with a simple caption: “Loving the tennis.” She wasn’t alone; Anna Nordqvist, Emily Kristine Pedersen, and Rose Zhang were also enjoying Wimbledon’s unique charm.
