TIM HENMAN’S daughter was blocked from sitting on Henman Hill at Wimbledon.
The All England Club was packed as Brit Cameron Norrie took on defending champion Carlos Alcaraz.
There was barely an empty seat inside Centre Court and there was not a patch of grass uncovered on Henman Hill.
So many fans packed onto the famous lawn that it had to be shut by staff at the grounds.
And that meant Henman’s daughter was unable to access the hill named after her dad.
Wimbledon icon Henman said on BBC commentary: “My daughter just messaged me saying it’s shut.
“They shut the hill because it’s too busy and she can’t get on it.”
Cameras panned out to show thousands of spectators catching a glimpse of the action on the big screen.
After the first set, which was won by Alcaraz, presenter Clare Balding confirmed what Henman said.
She added: “They have closed the hill because it is so busy.
“Even his daughter could not get on the hill named after him I mean what?!”
Henman and his wife Lucy Heald have three daughters – Rosie, 20, Olivia, 20, and Grace, 17.
