The British Royal Family has a longstanding relationship with the Wimbledon tennis tournament, dating back over a century. They've been patrons; presidents; frequent attendees in the so-called Royal Box; and even (in the case of King George V) a player at the 1926 tournament. From the early 20th century onward, we have semi-candid photos of the royal family watching the players, interacting with friends and family, and sometimes handing out awards. It's a fascinating look at their "off-duty" life (and indicates which of them are fans of the sport). Below, photos of the Royals at Wimbledon over the years.
