It's his second year in a row in the royal box at Wimbledon's centre court, but this time, former Ireland rugby captain Brian O'Driscoll decided to bring a racket with him.
O'Driscoll took part in a tennis clinic with Ten Henman and Lyndsey Davenport for HSBC today, and there are some videos of his performance. First, the Live at Wimbledon account got an interview with him, showing that despite his retirement, O'Driscoll still gets embarrassed with being told he is as good as he is.

In the tweet above, you can clearly see that O'Driscoll's backhand is as suave as you'd expect, but when you are playing Tim Henman, attacking the ball may help.
Here are the two clips that HSBC provided that show O'Driscoll holding his own:
