Sachin enjoys Wimbledon action

Sachin Tendulkar created a buzz at the All-England Club as he joined distinguished guests that included soccer legends like Sir Bobby Charlton, Sir Geoff Hurst, Sir Bobby Robson and Niall Quinn at Centre Court here on Saturday.

Traditionally, the first Saturday of the Championships is usually described as ‘Sporting Saturday’ since a select few British sports stars and former Wimbledon champs grace the Royal Box.

Dressed in a black suit, Tendulkar was cheered with a huge roar when his presence was announced at the Centre Court, and that was enough to suggest how much the little champion is adored in this part of the world.

Tendulkar watched women’s second seed Jelena Jankovich and upcoming British youngster Andy Murray in action, while waiting for Rafael Nadal’s match to begin. Yet he admitted that he is a die hard fan of Roger Federer.
