Kate Middleton, who has always charmed royal fans with her gorgeous appearances at Wimbledon since she married Prince William in 2011, has an emotional connection to the tournament.
The Princess of Wales, who will appear at the renowned tennis event on Wednesday, often steals the show with her stunning courtside attire.
The future Queen will make her first appearance at the sports event since missing the women's singles finals last year, but she did attend the men's tournament with her daughter Princess Charlotte.
The mother-of-three, who lately attracted some royal fans, may have observed that regardless of what she wears to Wimbledon. Nonetheless, she consistently wears the same item.
Each year, Princess Catherine may be seen wearing a little bow in a dark green and purple design, which she pins to her dress right below her shoulder.
Kate's item is a subtle nod to the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, which hosts the Wimbledon Championships each year, as the club's colours have been green and purple since 1909.
The Princess, 43, is the patron of the venue, which has overseen the tournament's day-to-day operations since 2016. Her nod to the organisers is discreet but polite.
Princess Kate first wore the bow pin in 2017, when she switched up her usual block colors for a stunning white floral dress by Catherine Walker.
She regularly chooses a sentimental item for significant events, like as earlier this year, when she revived a very particular hat for the Commonwealth Day ceremony in March.
Throughout the event, Wimbledon uses about 50,000 tennis balls. After the first seven games, the balls are changed and frozen to keep the bounce.
Tennis and strawberries are inextricably linked throughout Wimbledon, and they exclusively source the fruit from one provider. Last year, Hugh Lowe Farm in Kent delivered over 1.5 million strawberries throughout the two-week event.
The winners of the women's and men's singles championships will each get £2.2 million. Furthermore, the winners of each round will be awarded money, ranging from £1500 for the winner of the first round of mixed doubles to £1.1 million for the runner-up in the final.
