At Wimbledon 2025, American tennis player Ben Shelton publicly appealed for his sister Emma Shelton to receive additional time off from her job at investment bank Morgan Stanley so she could stay and support him at the tournament. The request came after the crowd booed Emma Shelton when her profession was revealed during a live BBC broadcast. Despite the initial negative reaction from the audience, Ben Shelton's plea was successful, allowing Emma to remain at Wimbledon. Additionally, Brooks Nader received recognition for wearing a skirt at Wimbledon, which was praised for normalizing period-related mishaps.
