The Royal Box, which is found at the Wimbledon’s Centre Court, is an enclosed area that has 74 seats for “friends and guests of Wimbledon” as described by Wimbledon. Access to these seats is by invite only. Tickets cannot be bought for the Wimbledon Royal Box and the invites are sent out on the basis of the recommendations made by the Chairman of the All England Club.
Too hot for the lad.

Poor wee soul…I hope when he grows up, he treats his own children with a little less formality. Like others have said…there are ways to be smartly dressed, and yet stay cool. Nobody would bat an eyelid if he were “smart casual”, yet a suit & tie gets everyone talking.
That’s what you think but they are all sold years in advance .
People buy debentures and sell them at stupid prices for the big matches .
Not ALL … 
The 2021-25 Centre Court debentures are expected to cost £100,000 each, and demand will far exceed the supply of 2,520 tickets that will go on sale at 10am on Thursday.
The debentures – which were first sold in 1920 for a combined total of £100,000 (about £4.5m in today’s money) to help fund the construction of Centre Court – occupy all the seats on either side of the royal box on level two. The All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club said: “At least one family has held debentures since inception.”
A maximum of 15,000 people can fit into Centre Court, which has space for 290 million tennis balls when the roof is closed.
So, 12,480 tickets remain.
The AELTC reserves a further 1,340 seats for corporate hospitality.
Invited guests, including the media, schools and overseas tennis associations, occupy 21% of the seats, leaving just 53.5% for the public.
That has to be one of the most useless bits of info I’ve ever read.I’ll try to remember it.

My mother, who played and loved tennis, took me to Wimbledon when I was about 10 years old, I have never been so bored in my life. The only part I enjoyed was the strawberries and cream and the train to London, I have no idea who or what I saw.
Along with the number of holes in Blackburn, Lancashire

Actually that doesn’t look like suit jacket that William is wearing, more like a blazer

George might have been more comfortable in a blazer, they can be lighter an looser
