Kate is a passionate tennis fan, so it's not surprising that when the queen passed on some of her patronages to various members of her family in 2016, Kate took on the one which involved the prestigious Wimbledon tournament. The duchess has attended Wimbledon at least once every year for the past 10 years, except when she was heavily pregnant with Prince George. She is also patron of The Lawn Tennis Association, which promotes tennis through funding training, competitions, and facilities.
