Nope, that isn’t Justin Bieber in the middle of a hysterical scrum - it is another young Canadian.
Genie Bouchard might ‘only’ be the world number 188 but she’s big news as far as the fans are concerned.
The walkway leading from court 14 to the locker room, along Centre Court and past the Media Centre, was packed solid as people tried to get pictures with her.

"That did a lot for my confidence, I played a lot of people inside the top 100 and got one of my best career wins," said Boulter, currently ranked 122.
"I've got to put my game out there and that's what I'm focusing on."
It's on serve at the minute.
