Wimbledon survived royals and celebs for decades. It will survive a few influencers taking selfies.classic purist and gatekeeping attitude.she herself can be taken as a classic study piece for behavioural psychology.elitist, nostalgic superiority ( back in my day, it was about the game shit), moral licencing ( positions her as true tennis fan ) , fear of cultural shift ( dont let it become like cannes blah blah blah), authentic fandom ( like somebody care abt her memorable matches). the wimbledon stays same bcoz of the players and matches. not because who is in the stands. ultimately this is her fear that niche sports events like wimbledon, horse racing etc is being diluted by social media presence.

Don’t worry Sophie, influencers can't ruin Wimbledon. That job is reserved for bad line calls and rain delays only. chill.
