Wimbledon in pictures: 10 iconic moments from the history of the tournament

The Queen returns to Wimbledon

The Queen interacted with tennis legend Billie Jean King during her 2010 visit

As per Wimbledon custom, the Queen of England occupies the Royal Box to watch players on Centre Court. However, current reigning monarch Queen Elizabeth had not visited the venue since the 1970s; but that all changed at the Championships in 2010, when Andy Murray took on Finnish player Jarkko Niemenen – and won.

Watching him from the Royal Box was a visitor who had not been present at the tournament for 33 years, watched Murray win.
