Roger Federer received a standing ovation Tuesday when he and wife Mirka joined Catherine, the Princess of Wales, in the Royal Box to take in Day 2 of Wimbledon action under a closed roof.

Impeccably attired in a beige suit, purple- and white-striped shirt and perfectly knotted tie, Federer was joined by his parents Robert and Lynette as he settled into the front row to enjoy a day of tennis, beginning with the WTA match between defending women’s champion Elena Rybakina and Shelby Rogers.
