McEnroe's verbals, Cliff Richard and Andy Murray - 10 iconic Wimbledon moments
Ahead of the most recent round of Pimm's and strawberries and cream, we pick out some of the most memorable Wimbledon moments from down the years Wimbledon is back for another year of thrills, spills and exhilarating tennis. As one of the most prestigious events in the British sporting calendar, Wimbledon has played host to countless iconic moments on and off court. Ahead of the latest fortnight of action from SW19, we've narrowed them down to 10 of the best from down the years... Virginia Wade, 1977 The Queen was not known for her love of tennis but in her Silver Jubilee year, she made a rare visit to Centre Court and watched as Virginia Wade made history. The 32-year-old was a two-time major winner but Wimbledon was a nut she just couldn't crack, with four quarter-final and two semi-final exits along the way – sound familiar? Yet it all came together in 1977, a summer of street parties, bunting and patriotism. She beat Bette Stover to become champion and remains the last British winner of the Venus Rosewater Dish. John McEnroe, 1981 If you asked people to deliver the most famous quote in tennis, it would likely be John McEnroe's words they use. The words conjure up an image too: a mess of curls, sweat band around his head, short shorts, wooden racket, and visible, seething anger. McEnroe was serving to Tom Gullikson in a first-round encounter in 1981 when his serve was called out. 'You can't be serious man. You cannot be serious. That ball was on the line, chalk flew up, it was clearly in. How can you possible call it out?' And so on and so on, with McEnroe barely composing himself before double faulting. The American eventually won the match and the men's singles title for the first time. Pat Cash, 1987 It's got a name and a handy gate now but when Pat Cash clambered up to the player's box on Centre Court, he was the first to complete the 'Champions Climb' The Australian had reached new heights with a first Grand Slam victory but decided he wanted to go even higher after defeating Ivan Lendl 7-6 6-2 7-5 in the men's singles final. After jumping into the stands, Cash worked his way to the commentary box, giving it a tap to check its sturdiness before clambering up onto its roof and then into the arms of his father. Since then, many a champion have recreated the move, but he will always be the first to do it. Martina Navratilova, 1990 One of the best to ever do it, Martina Navratilova broke more records than you can keep track of. But the one that really mattered to her was a ninth Wimbledon title as she took the outright record for women's singles wins. Across the late 1970s and 1980s, Navratilova was almost untouchable on the grass courts of SW19, winning eight titles between 1978 and 1987. And then along came Steffi Graf, who beat Navratilove in the final in 1988 and 1989 to put the Czech-born players tilt at the record in serious jeopardy. When Zina Garrison knocked out Graf in the last four in 1990, it set Navratilova on the path to immortality. Jana Novotna, 1993 The Royals' image has softened in recent years but in 1993, the most interaction you would expect is a handshake and a polite comment. But when someone was as upset as Jana Novotna, rules had to go out of the window. The Czech player was on a stunning run as she reached the Wimbledon final, having beaten Gabriela Sabatini and Martina Navratilova, before leading Steffi Graf 4-1 in the final set of the showpiece. A double fault was the beginning of the end for Novotna, who lost the match and then cried on the shoulder of the Duchess of Kent. The Duchess consoled Novotna, who had happier times on Centre Court as she won the title in 1998. Jeff Tarango, 1995 A forgotten player, Jeff Tarango is unfairly missed off many lists of iconic Wimbledon moments. And it was during his 1995 third-round match that he made history, becoming the first player to default himself at Wimbledon. Trailing to Alexander Mronz in the second set, Tarrango was given a code violation for audible obscenity by umpire Bruno Rebeuh after telling hecklers in the crowd to 'shut up'. From there, Tarango lost his head, accusing Rebeuh of corruption and receiving a second code violation before storming off the court and forfeiting the match, a Wimbledon first that is yet to be repeated. In a bizarre twist, Tarango's wife Benedicte decided to take matters into her own hands and slapped the official twice across the face. She later defended her actions, claiming: "I don't think it's bad. I think it's good, because this guy deserves a lesson at some point." Cliff Richard, 1996 Rain stopping play is not a remarkable occurrence at Wimbledon but being serenaded by Cliff Richard and 'the Racquettes' is. When the men's quarter-finals were halted in 1996, the microphone was handed to Sir Cliff by Wimbledon officials and the popstar duly entertained. Beginning slightly ironically with Summer Holiday, Richard went through a string of hits with the likes of Pam Shriver, Virginia Wade and Martina Navratilova on backing vocals. After 20 minutes of songs including Living Doll and Congratulations the rain cleared and the real entertainment could begin. Richard returned in 2022 to sing again, but let's just say the feedback was less positive this time. Steffi Graf, 1996 There must have been something about the audiences at Wimbledon in 1996 with another iconic moment coming from that year. This time it is with Steffi Graf, the seven-time women's singles winner as she claimed her final title. Graf was facing Kimiko Date in the semi-finals, and was just preparing to serve when a voice from the crowd shouted 'Steffi, will you marry me?' The German allowed herself a laugh before she responded to the proposal with a question of her own. 'How much money do you have?' was her reply, and it must not have been enough with Graf going on to marry fellow tennis player Andre Agassi. Venus Williams, 2000 The turn of the millennium was a time of predictions of what a new era would look like, but no one could have imagined what was about to happen to women's tennis. Venus Williams reached her first Grand Slam singles final in 1997 with sister Serena winning her first Grand Slam two years later. But it was in 2000 when the signs of what to come first became clear. Venus was taking on fellow American Lindsey Davenport in her first Wimbledon final, clinching the trophy in a second set tie break. The celebrations were jubilant, and Williams ran first to her father and sister as their dynasty began to take shape. The sister act won the women's doubles title that year too, as Venus won 10 more Wimbledon titles, with Serena claiming 14 in total, as the pair became as synonymous with the Championships as strawberries and cream. Andy Murray, 2013 Seventy-seven years we waited – and boy was it worth it. Andy Murray ended decades of British hurt in the men's singles in what is still arguably the most iconic achievement by any British athlete this century. Murray took us on one hell of a journey. Like Tim Henman before him, he became a specialist in glorious failure – falling in three successive semi-finals between 2009-2011. He finally reached the final in 2012 but was taught a harsh lesson in a Roger Federer masterclass. But in 2013, with an Olympic gold medal and US Open title under his belt, it was different. Federer and Rafael Nadal were out early, leaving Murray to sling it out with Novak Djokovic in the final. The great Scot then delivered the performance of his life to win in straight sets. In emotional scenes, he celebrated by hugging his mum. There was a VIP crowd to see his victory too, with Hollywood star Bradley Cooper, footballer Wayne Rooney and former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham all there.

Without birthright citizenship, these celebs might not be Americans
On June 27, the Supreme Court lifted temporary blocks preventing Trump's order from taking effect, but left it to lower courts to consider the constitutionality of Trump's executive order. Whether Trump will ultimately be able to repeal the longstanding legal precedent that grants citizenship to all children born on American soil is unclear. Here are some well-known actors and politicians who would not have been American citizens when they were born if birthright had not existed. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, 54, is the son of Cuban immigrants who did not become naturalized U.S. citizens until 1975, years after their son was born. Rubio has previously said he does not agree with repealing birthright citizenship. Diane Guerrero Actress Diane Guerrero, who starred in the hit television show "Orange is the New Black," was born to undocumented immigrants from Columbia who were deported when she was 14, she told NPR in 2019. In an interview with the outlet, she said, "This is a country of immigrants. People forget - they like to forget that their ancestors came here with the same dream, with the same hopes, with the same fears. And it's unfair to say that because people are coming later that they don't deserve to be here." Nikki Haley, the former South Carolina governor who ran for the Republican nomination for president in 2024, was born in South Carolina to immigrants from the Punjab region of India, according to her autobiography. In 2015, she told The State news outlet that her parents were in the United States legally but did not become naturalized citizens until after her birth, and the non-partisan American Immigration Council considers her a U.S. citizen because of her place of birth. Bruce Lee Bruce Lee, the martial arts icon who starred in films such as "Enter the Dragon" and "Fists of Fury," was born in San Francisco while his parents were traveling with the Chinese Opera. The National Archives notes that under birthright citizenship he was considered a citizen - though he would not be under Trump's revision to the law. "Lee's parents filed for a Return Certificate on his behalf ... enabling him to return to the United States if he later wished to do so. Lee did return at the age of 18 and grew into the iconic martial artist and film star known across the world." Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship may have been designed explicitly against his November rival for the presidency, former Vice President Kamala Harris. David Bier, of the Libertarian Cato Institute, posted on X the day Trump signed the order: "As I predicted, Trump's birthright citizenship EO includes a Kamala Harris clause, specifically designed to deny the legitimacy of her US citizenship as the child of someone with a temporary status." Trump's order specifies that someone wouldn't be entitled to birthright if their mother was on a temporary visa - like the student visa Harris' mother was on at the time of her birth - and their father wasn't a citizen, as hers wasn't. Vivek Ramaswamy Vivek Ramaswamy, the tech billionaire and 2024 Republican presidential candidate, told NBC News in 2023 that his father never became a U.S. citizen and his mother only naturalized after he was born. Ramaswamy, who Trump endorsed in next year's Ohio gubernatorial race, has repeatedly called for an end to birthright citizenship.

'Royal plan' to win over Donald Trump from 'secret weapon' to 'icing on cake
The Royal Family look set to welcome Donald Trump to the UK on a historic second state visit after the summer - and it seems the US president could be keen for two major royals to took part After the Royal Family's summer holidays, they will return to duties with a bang due to Donald Trump's state visit to the UK. It is understood the US president will make an unprecedented second state visit to the UK in September with formal planning for the huge event now underway. The state visit comes after UK prime minister Keir Starmer delivered a letter from the King to Trump to invite him for the state visit - dramatically handing it to him in the Oval Office during a visit to the White House. Of course, the King and Queen Camilla will be on hand to host Trump and his wife Melania - but it seems the US leader has been enamoured by another member of the Royal Family, Prince William. The pair met in Paris last year after the re-opening of Notre Dame Cathedral, with Trump reportedly 'obsessed' with the heir to the throne, calling him "very handsome". And former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond believes William possibly teaming up with wife Kate to play a huge royal in the event would do wonders for UK diplomacy. She explained to the Mirror: "President Trump appears to have taken a shine to William, after their meeting at Notre Dame. So I'm sure we shall see Prince William taking a prominent role in the state visit. "The icing on the cake for Donald Trump would, of course, be the presence of the Princess of Wales at some of the events and at the state dinner. That will depend on her health. "But I'm sure both William and Catherine recognise the importance of massaging the President's ego, and they will play as prominent a part as possible. It's what the monarch and his senior working royals must do; it's their job and their duty and they will do it well." When Trump was first told he would be given a second state visit to the UK, the letter from the King invited him to an informal meeting in Scotland as a precursor to a full state visit. But this has now been brought forward by many months. Buckingham Palace was understood to have been hoping for a more leisurely approach amid concern over Trump's threat to make Canada the US's 51st state. However, sources confirmed after conversations between both parties the King and the US president's busy diaries mean they are unable to meet informally first over the summer. And Jennie added: "These are very tricky times for the Government - and the world - so you really can't blame the PM for using every diplomatic weapon in his arsenal. And the King is probably the most powerful weapon he has. "I imagine the King thinks Trump is impudent in the extreme by suggesting Canada should become the 51st US State. I can almost hear the huffing and puffing that it must have provoked behind Palace walls. But Charles also knows that Anglo/American relations are vitally important, and his duty is to help his Government protect that relationship. "So, although the King could conceivably have made himself unavailable at the proposed time, he knows his duty is to stage a spectacular event that will pander to this President's very sizeable ego. And that's what he'll do. "As Prince of Wales, he could allow himself the luxury of boycotting a state dinner for the Chinese president and his entourage – even though it attracted criticism. As King, he no longer has that luxury and he must play a starring role in the state visit at the appointed time. Charles and Camilla will be impeccably behaved, and Trump will be duly bewitched by the magic of monarchy." However, Jennie added that there would also be a diplomatic tightrope to walk for the King given his role as head of state of Canada - which he could even use to his advantage. She explained: "The President views himself as an arch negotiator, but it has to be said that the King is no mean hand himself at convening meetings and encouraging people to hammer out a solution to a variety of issues and problems. "So perhaps he can use a little not-so-soft power to impress upon Trump that Canada is not up for grabs. It is, after all, something exceptionally close to the King of Canada's heart."
