- WIN WIMBLEDON TICKETS in exclusive M+ competition with Emirates
David Beckham and Maria Sharapova led a star-studded cast for the first day of Wimbledon.
Beckham made a transatlantic dash from Atlanta, where he was watching his Inter Miami side bow out of the Club World Cup against Paris Saint-Germain.
But he showed no sign of jet lag after touching down at SW19 as he shared an enthusiastic selfie with former Wimbledon champion Sharapova on Henman Hill.
Beckham, 50, was hospitalised last week after being left in ‘unbearable’ pain and requiring surgery to remove a screw embedded in his wrist from an old injury suffered while playing for England 22 years ago.
He was seen arriving at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Sunday wearing a blue sling with his right hand encased in a plaster cast.
Again sporting another navy suit, Beckham remained in good spirits at Wimbledon as he shared a morning catch-up with Sharapova.
