VIDEO: Brian O’Driscoll practiced his backhand against a Wimbledon *legend* at SW19 today

Out

Brian O'Driscoll never struck us as a tennis fan, but it seems that the former rugby player is quite the supporter of the strawberries and cream available in SW19 as he's taking in a few matches at Wimbledon. The former Ireland captain is in London as part of a sponsorship arrangement, and is in the Royal box for today's match between Roger Federer and Sam Groth at centre court. https://twitter.com/stu_fraser/status/617268970794688513 Before he sat down to take in the match however the ex-Leinster man decided he'd like to test his backhand skills against a Wimbledon legend in the shape of Tim Henman. Granted, the Englishman never won the thing, but it's fair to say we all have a soft spot for the player who raised the natives spirits every summer, only to see them crushed again in the most thrilling and heartbreaking fashion. Who couldn't love a man like that. https://twitter.com/HSBC_Sport/status/617250663618224128 https://twitter.com/JohnSkilbeckPA/status/617272570560315392
