Wimbledon day 13: Ashleigh Barty joins the Wimbledon roll of honour, Tom Cruise in the royal box and more

Ashleigh Barty was crowned Wimbledon champion after a three-set victory over Karolina Pliskova.
The world No 1 overcame her own nerves and the slow-burning Pliskova to win 6-3, 6-7 (4-7), 6-3 on Centre Court.
Barty’s victory saw her emulate friend and mentor Evonne Goolagong Cawley 50 years on from her first Wimbledon title while wearing an outfit inspired by that moment.
It also ended Australia’s four-decade wait for a women’s champion.

What a wonderful follow up to Evonne’s win on the 50th anniversary.
