EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a young and energetic Duke of York, later to become King George VI, engaging in a friendly game of doubles tennis at the world-renowned Wimbledon Championships in 1926. Ten years prior to his reign, the Duke is seen in high spirits as he plays alongside his mentor, the esteemed Scottish surgeon, Sir Louis Greig. The Duke's passion for the sport is evident in his focused expression and determined stance, while Sir Greig, a former Wimbledon champion, guides him with a steady hand. The image offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of the future monarch, showcasing his love for tennis and the camaraderie he shared with those close to him. The Duke's elegant attire, complete with a crisp white shirt, striped blazer, and straw hat, adds to the timeless charm of this photograph. This photograph is a testament to the Duke's enduring connection to the game and his commitment to maintaining an active lifestyle, which would later serve him well during his reign as King.
