Sitting in the Royal Box, looking dapper as fuck in a suit as per usual, the former England captain reacted quickest, catching the ball before hurling it back onto the lawn.

A wry smile, then a polite wave as the crowd can't help but applaud the bit of quick thinking served up by the decorated footballer. Just superb.
