Despite his defeat in the Wimbledon 2024 men's singles final, Novak Djokovic enjoyed playing in front of the Princess of Wales. Djokovic lost 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 to Carlos Alcaraz, marking the second consecutive year the 21-year-old Spaniard defeated him in a Grand Slam final.
Having recovered from knee surgery after the French Open, the 37-year-old Djokovic reached his 10th Wimbledon final but was outplayed by Alcaraz. The Princess of Wales, Kate, presented the runners-up trophy to Djokovic for the second time in 12 months.
Djokovic praised Kate's presence and health, saying, "It's very nice to see her in good health. She seems to be in good health, which is very positive news for everyone in this country and for Wimbledon."
Kate, undergoing preventative chemotherapy for cancer discovered after major surgery in January, was in the Royal Box with her daughter, Princess Charlotte, and her sister, Pippa Middleton. Wearing an eye-catching purple dress, Kate's support added to the event's prestige.
"It's amazing to have Her Royal Highness here with her family members," Djokovic said. "They truly respect and admire the game, which is wonderful support from the Royal Family."
The presence of the Princess of Wales and her family contributed to the remarkable atmosphere on Centre Court, highlighting the Royal Family's enduring support for the Wimbledon Championships.
