Imagine being two sets down and facing match point against Roger Federer, the number one ranked seed at Wimbledon, and coming back to win a mammoth five setter?

Take a bow, Kevin Anderson.

Yes, I believe we deserve another look at him clinching a semi-final spot, and for South African tennis fans this will probably be their best point of the tournament so far.

If you didn’t let out a roar of approval, you’re doing life wrong:

Mr Anderson, we raise a cultured drink to the skies in your honour.

Alas, that’s not actually the point of the tournament, because everyone is talking about this cracker between Novak Djokovic and Kei Nishikori, also from a quarter-final yesterday:

That is worthy of being dubbed the best point of Wimbledon.

The players aren’t the only ones soaking up the limelight, because you can always count on a host of celebs to be sat courtside.

I’ll give you some credit and assume that you can pick Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake out from the crowd (up top), but here is Forbes with a few more snaps:

Drake

Sergio and Angela Garcia

Pippa and James Middleton

I wonder whether Meghan and Harry will make an appearance? Also, is Meghan a Pimm’s girl or, like her new mother-in-law, a fan of a classic gin and tonic?

It’s mandatory to snack on strawberries and cream and cucumber sandwiches, but what to pair it with? We’d stick with the classic – Cape Town Gin Classic Dry, some Fitch & Leedes Indian Tonic as a mixer, and served with the same high-speed efficiency as a Kevin Anderson ace down the line.

How about Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, stroking Richard Branson’s beard?

Gerard Piqué

Suppose he has some extra time on his hands, given that Russia knocked his team out in the second round.

Don’t reckon the English boys will make it back in time from Saturday’s 3rd-place playoff game against Belgium to attend, but maybe Becks will make an appearance.

Lottie Moss

Yes, that’s Kate’s little sister and yes, this family has a quite remarkable set of genes.

One more – here’s Amber Heard and Vito Schnabel

Channelling her inner peacock, I guess.

One thing is for sure – if Kevin Anderson can overcome American John Isner in their semi-final, you have every reason to drink this upcoming Sunday.

We know you keep it tidy when you’ve got work the next day, so imbibe a few Cape Town Gin and tonics, keep an eye on the footie whilst cheering Kev on, and don’t let a Monday ruin your Sunday.

You can see the full range of Cape Town Gin offerings here, and make a booking to pop past their tasting room here.
