Nick Kyrgios had Clare Balding in stitches on the BBC ahead of the Wimbledon men's final on Sunday as he sent an offer to Kate, Princess of Wales.
Kate Middleton is back at the All England Club for the first time this year to present the trophy to the champion.
Kyrgios received his runner-up plate from the Princess of Wales in 2022. And he has now made an offer to coach her.

Kate did not attend Saturday's women's singles final and had the All England Club chair, Debbie Jevans, present the Venus Rosewater Dish in her place. But she took her seat in the Royal Box on Centre Court for Novak Djokovic vs Carlos Alcaraz on Sunday, much to the delight of Tim Henman.
Henman is a board member of the club and the Princess of Wales is the AELTC's Patron. Addressing her return to Wimbledon, he told the BBC: "She has been an enormous tennis fan for so many years so now as our patron I think it's such an honour for us.
"As spectators or working here at the tournament, to have her it makes it even more special on such a big day."

Outside of her role as Patron, the Princess of Wales has also spent time with the likes of Roger Federer and Emma Raducanu, even joining them on court for a hit in the past.
And Balding wanted to know whether Kyrgios ever had the same honour. "She has played with Federer, has she asked to play with you yet Nick?" she asked.

Kyrgios' response was a surprising one, as he sent his own invitation to Kate Middleton. "Unfortunately not. Maybe I'm a little bit too volatile. But look I have a lot of time on my hands at the moment, but I'm happy to coach," he smiled, before Henman and Balding cracked up at his answer.
The Princess received a standing ovation as she took her seat in the front row of the Royal Box. It's a rare public outing for Kate Middleton, who, earlier this year, announced that she had started a course of preventative chemotherapy.
