Fans took to Twitter to react to Sir Cliff Richard singing acapella during the BBC's Wimbledon Centre Court centenary celebration coverage. Several fans cringed as Sue Barker's former flame made a rendition of Summer Holiday, before John McEnroe joked at Barker by attempting to bring up the presenter's former relationship with the singer before he was shut down and Barker attempted to move the programme along.
Why isn't Federer playing Wimbledon this year? Will he play again?
One fan tweeted: "And my first ever live Cliff Richard performance! Probably my last, to be fair."
Another said: "Just watched the Wimbledon crowd sing along to summer holiday with Cliff Richard and I've never been as ashamed to be British in me life."
Fans seemed to enjoy McEnroe poking fun at Barker, with one tweet saying: "John McEnroe baiting out Sue Barker as well legend #Wimbledon." While she did take the joke well, one watcher believed she was not impressed with the joke. "Sue Barker about to punch John McEnroe. We love to see it"
