David Beckham steals the show at Wimbledon 2025 and it's not just because of his suit
Wimbledon is officially underway, and while the world tunes in to watch the tennis elite battle it out on Centre Court, let's be honest, some of us are just here for the fashion. And where better to spot some of the season's most polished summer looks than in the iconic Royal Box?
This year's tournament is already serving major style moments, and kicking things off in true dapper fashion is none other than Sir David Beckham.
The football legend turned global style icon was spotted on Day One of the tournament looking effortlessly cool in a light tan linen suit. Sitting beside England's former coach Gareth Southgate, Beckham reminded everyone that Wimbledon's best-dressed list isn't reserved for the women.

But fans quickly noticed something else besides the outfit, David's right hand was wrapped in a bandage, a subtle nod to a recent health update.
Just last week, wife Victoria Beckham shared a photo of him recovering in a hospital bed, arm in a sling. Turns out, the 50-year-old recently underwent surgery to remove a screw from an old injury, one he got over two decades ago while playing for England in South Africa.
Speaking to DAZN Football during a recent appearance in Atlanta (where he was supporting his team Inter Miami CF in the FIFA Club World Cup), Beckham explained, 'I broke my arm 23 years ago playing for England.

I had a screw put in, and it needed to come out.'
So yes, while most of us would probably still be curled up in bed post-surgery, Beckham is out here attending one of the biggest sporting events of the year - looking sharp, sipping Pimm's, and somehow making a bandaged hand look like a chic accessory.
Wimbledon has always been a mix of tradition and trendsetting, and Beckham is the perfect blend of both. With strawberries and cream in one hand and style confidence in the other (even if slightly bandaged), he's proof that when it comes to Wimbledon fashion, the men are very much in the game.
Stay tuned, if this is how Day One is going, we can't wait to see who else shows up courtside this year.

Travis Kelce may not retire until he fulfills his childhood dream
(Image via Kansas City Chiefs X: Travis Kelce) Travis Kelce wants to fulfill his childhood dream of giving his all to football. And unless and until he feels that his dream is fulfilled, he says he does not plan to retire. On June 30, the Kansas City Chiefs' tight end talks candidly about retirement with the hosts of the Bussin' With The Boys podcast, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan. Kelce says, 'I don't know what I'm gonna feel like in March and in April next year when I make that decision, or I try to figure out what's next for me. But I know that I got one on the contract and I got a hell of a f*cking team and we got a lot of f*cking talent and I'm pumped for it.' Further in the podcast, when the hosts pressed for retirement date, the 3-time Super Bowl Champion said, 'I don't wanna leave anything out there. I wanna give it my all and make sure that I do for the childhood dream in me. You know what I mean? The kid in me is like - I wanna make this sh*t the best thing ever man.' The Kansas City Chiefs' tight end Taylor Swift's NFL boyfriend, Travis Kelce, does not plan to retire till he achieves his childhood dream The question of retirement always looms over the 35-year-old tight end's aura. A podcast with the showrunners of Bussin' With The Boys, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan, was no different. But when it did, Travis Kelce knew exactly how to handle it. For starters, Kelce talked about his past season. 'I'm going into the last year of my contract, 13th year. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo I wanna make this dream that I've always had the best it's ever been.

Travis Kelce Talks NFL Retirement, Chiefs Super Bowl Loss + Bussin' With The Boys Meets Taylor Swift Could the 2025 NFL season be the last year for the 10-time Pro Bowler, Travis Kelce? Will Compton asked, 'Pouring all that into this season, like setting all the other stuff aside, just focusing on football. Is there a little bit of mortality coming with this being your last year in Kansas City? Like, this could be the last year for Travis Kelce?'

Did the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX stop Travis Kelce from retiring? Taylor Lewan asked, 'There were a bunch of rumors swirling around that this could be the last year, this past year. Well, how close were you to hanging it up? Would the Super Bowl have changed that for you?' 'It might have made me think about it a little bit more. I think I just had a sour taste in my mouth immediately, and like, man, this can't be the last game, you know. I still feel like I can do it. And I kind of wanted to give myself that full focus when I kind of looked at the year, review, and how I got ready for the year, and things like that. It's not to say that I was doing it wrong; it's just that when you get older, you start to figure things out differently. Like your body doesn't react to how it used to do things. You have to focus a little bit more on the preparation, and being there, and being ready, and then throughout the week, you've got to have more of a plan to get back to 100 percent. And thinking about all those things, it was like - I don't wanna leave anything out there. I wanna give it my all and make sure that I do for the childhood dream in me. You know what I mean? The kid in me is like - I wanna make this sh*t the best thing ever man.'

Wimbledon: Third Seed Alexander Zverev Suffers Stunning Exit, Petra Kvitova's Farewell Ends In Defeat
United Kingdom: Alexander Zverev suffered his earliest Grand Slam exit since 2019 as the German third seed was stunned by France's Arthur Rinderknech in the Wimbledon first round on Tuesday. Zverev, a three-time Grand Slam runner-up, slipped to a shock 7-6 (7/3), 6-7 (8/10), 6-3, 6-7 (5/7), 6-4 defeat against the world number 72 in a marathon clash lasting four hours and 40 minutes on Centre Court. The 28-year-old is the highest-ranked seed to fall so far in this year's men's singles at the All England Club. Zverev, who reached the Australian Open final in January, endured his latest Wimbledon flop in a tie that initially started on Monday evening. When play was halted due to Wimbledon's 2200 GMT curfew, the match was level at one-set all. But Rinderknech seized his chance once play resumed in the blazing London heat on Tuesday afternoon. Rinderknech hit 25 aces and although Zverev replied with 31 of his own, it was not enough to stave off an embarrassing defeat. Zverev has failed to make it past the fourth round at Wimbledon in nine visits to the grass-court major. He had reached at least the second round in his previous 20 Grand Slam appearances. Olympic champion out Zheng Qinwen admitted she was not focused enough after the Chinese Olympic champion slumped to a shock first-round Wimbledon defeat against world number 81 Katerina Siniakova on Tuesday. Zheng exited in the opening round for a third straight year, losing 7-5, 4-6, 6-1 to the unheralded Czech in two hours and 25 minutes in searing heat on Court Three. It is the fourth time in her past six Grand Slam appearances that Zheng has failed to get past the third round, a barren run interrupted by quarter-final runs at the 2024 US Open and this year's French Open. "I should do better in my service games. I was leading 5-3 in the first set and my concentration was not there. I gave her the game so easily. It's a pity," Zheng said. "On grass you don't get too many chances to come back. I should have taken my chances better but I'm not going to let this enter my mind. It's just one match I lost at Wimbledon. "I made a lot of mistakes. I made the match complicated. The weather was very hot but I believe I should have been more focused on the court. Maybe I should work more to be focused in the heat." After finishing as Australian Open runner-up to Aryna Sabalenka last year, Zheng won Olympic gold on the Paris clay in August, beating Donna Vekic in the final. The 22-year-old, sixth in the WTA rankings, has fared less well on the grass courts of south-west London. Following her latest Wimbledon flop against Siniakova, the Chinese star has never been past the third round in four visits to the All England Club. Kvitova Knocked Out Petra Kvitova's Wimbledon farewell ended in an emotional defeat as the two-time champion was beaten 6-3, 6-1 by Emma Navarro in the first round on Tuesday. Kvitova returned from maternity leave in February following the birth of her son Petr in 2024, but found it difficult to handle the demands of being a mother on the gruelling tennis circuit. The 35-year-old Czech announced last week that she will bring the curtain down on her career after the US Open in August. Kvitova's decision gave the former world number two, who has won 31 titles in her career, one last opportunity to return to the scene of her Wimbledon triumphs. But American 10th seed Navarro ruined her hopes of a long Wimbledon goodbye with a clinical 60-minute victory on Court One. Kvitova could not hold back the tears when she was given a standing ovation by the crowd, responding with a wave before drying her eyes. "It's very special to play on this beautiful court one more time. I wish I could play a little bit longer but it's OK, whatever" she said as more tears flowed. "This place holds the best memories I could wish for. I never dreamt of winning Wimbledon. "I will miss Wimbledon for sure, I will miss tennis but I'm ready for the next chapter as well. "I can't wait to be back here as a member. Thank you very much Wimbledon." A raw 21-year-old when she stunned Maria Sharapova to win the 2011 Wimbledon final, three years later Kvitova returned to the All England Club title match to rout Eugenie Bouchard 6-3, 6-0. Now ranked 572, Kvitova has lost eight of her nine matches since becoming a parent. But she says Wimbledon means "everything to me", an emotional connection forged not just in her tennis triumphs but also because her engagement to her coach Jiri Vanek took place on Centre Court in 2022. She rolled back the years at the start of the first set, racing into a 3-1 lead with a series of blistering winners. But the left-hander is no longer the force of old and she lost five games in a row with a host of unforced errors as Navarro took the set. By the time Kvitova lost the first two games of the second set, her fate was almost sealed. She managed one last echo of yesteryear, holding serve in the third game and celebrating with a clenched fist. That show of defiance was Kvitova's final fling as a double-fault finished her All England Club career. She bowed out with a kiss to her family in the players' box before leaving the Wimbledon stage for the last time.

Vikrant Massey tried to attend parties and dress up in luxury outfits In a candid conversation with actress Rhea Chakraborty on her YouTube channel, Vikrant spoke about experimenting with PR-driven appearances and high-end fashion. He felt compelled to keep up with industry trends. 'Not that I didn't try, I did try it for a good 4–5 months. I started attending parties, I started renting out clothes, they are so expensive. It costs so much money to wear those clothes just once,' Vikrant admitted.

He spoke about it when some people encouraged him to do so. 'It suits other people. So it's not like I am right and they are wrong, that thing was wrong for me,' he added.
