Aw that's cute! In a way it's even cuter than if he did it perfectly... 

They both look great, and they truly do suit each other! Happy for them!

That's Bjorn Borg?  Wow.  Funny how the men dress up in suits to sit out in the sun in July and watch tennis. Whew, I'll bet that gets uncomfortable. In an American crowd, everyone would have shorts, tee shirts, ball caps and sunscreen on and not much else.
 

Our July so far still feels like April. Shorts and tees would be a bit overdoing it.

Apparently we might peak as "high" as 30c in a week or two.

There is a set dress code for the box, regardless of the weather...this from the nation who allows it's guards to faint with heat and it's girl guides to pass out with cold.

I dunno.  We Americans often look like a bunch of bums when we're out in public, so... 

The other day, I saw TV news coverage of a funeral gathering for a high-profile young person who'd died in a local community, and all the under-the-age-of-30 mourners outside the funeral home honest to goodness were dressed as though they were going to the beach. I know, I'm old, but still, it seemed disrespectful. Oh, well, everyone gets to do their own thing these days. Do you suppose Ben and Sophie would have been turned away if he hadn't had a suit and tie on? Doubtful. She OTOH looked cool and comfortable in her little cotton day dress.

Definitely.
Lewis Hamilton was turned away last year, because he wasn't in a jacket and tie.

But he could have gone and sat in one of the cheap seats dressed as he was?  I mean, is it only the box celebrity seats where there's a dress code?  You're right, it seems kind of snooty-phony, doesn't it.

He seems such a pleasant, gracious person. lol about that Sherlock hair all slicked back, it looks *awful*.  But OTOH, maybe he'd just been sweating, sitting there for hours in that silly suit.  Anyway, BC is a gentleman and a scholar, and it's lovely watching him just being him!
 

Looking good at Wimbledon, Benedict
