The Princess of Wales had a birthday card prepared for Wimbledon star Arthur Fery

The Prince and Princess of Wales were at the Wimbledon final this weekend along with their two oldest children George and Charlotte.

Not only did they get to meet the finalists but they also talked to British semi-finalist Arthur Fery, who was celebrating turning 24 on Sunday.

Prince William and Catherine congratulated him on his success in the tournament and wished him a happy birthday.

But Fery also had a gift for George and Charlotte in return - an offer to come and play tennis with him.

When asked what he'd said to the princess, Fery said: "I know the whole family are all tennis fans, so I told her if her kids ever wanted to hit, I'm free."

But he's unsure of whether the family will actually do it, saying: "Let's see, I don't know. Let's see if I get the call up."

Whether they do or they don't it got us thinking - if you could learn from and play against any sportsperson who would it be?

Would you pick a World Cup top goalscorer or maybe an F1 driver, an Olympian, or even a rugby or NFL player?
