Andy Murray gave Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, a special token after his Wimbledon win on Thursday. A wristband!
The 28-year-old Scot tossed his wristband to the 67-year-old wife of Prince Charles, who attended the game where the tennis ace beat Robin Haase in the second round of the men's singles, People magazine reported.
Clarence House, which manages the official Twitter account for the royal couple, wrote "Thank you for your wrist band Andy!" to mark the incident.
But even though it was Murray who gave Camilla a souvenir, the royal had already extended her support for one of his rivals, Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal, when she met him at the All England Club before Murray's match.
The entire royal family is a huge tennis fan, with Princess Kate and Prince William making frequent appearances at Wimbledon.
