WIMBLEDON fans have been distracted by BBC presenter John McEnroe’s bold look at the All England Club.
Clare Balding even joked that she wanted Tim Henman to copy the tennis icon as they chatted courtside.
Wimbledon fans were distracted by John McEnroe’s bold look
Viewers were left distracted by McEnroe’s appearance ahead of the quarter-final match between Andrey Rublev and Novak Djokovic on Tuesday.
The three-time Wimbledon champion sported a black t-shirt and blazer along with two gold necklaces to complete the striking look.
After spotting his outfit, one viewer tweeted: “When John McEnroe has tennis punditry at #Wimbledon in the afternoon and a rock concert at Wembley in the evening.”
Another wrote: “Rock superstar John McEnroe after raiding Mrs Mac’s jewellery box.”
A third joked: “Nice of Billy Idol to slot in for John McEnroe today at Wimbledon.”
One more tennis fan added: “Why does John McEnroe dress like he’s 25.”
Another commented: “John McEnroe’s style is, um, interesting.”
“Is John McEnroe wearing a padlock necklace?” asked another fan.
McEnroe’s look did not go unnoticed by Balding and Henman either as they chatted courtside.
Balding joked: “I’m enjoying the fact you’re clearly supporting Rublev today, because you know he’s a big Iron Maiden fan, and I feel you’ve gone for that heavy metal look.”
Henman replied: “I was thinking of going for that look as well.. I sort of spun a coin this morning. It came down to the suit and tie unfortunately.”
“I’d quite like to see you with that look,” Balding continued.
The former British number one was not as keen, adding: “I’m not sure I’d like to see it.”
McEnroe disagreed, though, as he quipped: “I think we should push for that.”
