Wimbledon 2012: Prince William and Kate visit Centre Court

Prince William and his wife, Kate, visited Wimbledon on Wednesday to watch the men's quarterfinals on Centre Court.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were given a loud ovation as they took their seats in the Royal Box ahead of six-time champion Roger Federer's match against Mikhail Youzhny.

British hope Andy Murray was set to play David Ferrer of Spain in the second match on Centre Court.

Last week, Prince Charles made his first visit to Wimbledon since 1970, while Kate's sister Pippa Middleton has also been at the All England Club during the tournament.

William and Kate also watched Murray play at Wimbledon last year.
