The presence of Hoffman — who won an Oscar for his role in “Rain Man” — was perhaps fitting on a day when showers disrupted play at the grass-court Grand Slam tournament both in the morning and afternoon.
The match between Alcaraz and Tiafoe was played under a retractable roof, keeping everyone dry.
Hoffman is no stranger to Wimbledon. In 2012, he was in Serena Williams' player box to watch the American's fourth-round match.
Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback who won his third Super Bowl title this year, had also attended a Morgan Wallen concert in Hyde Park in central London on Thursday.
Other famous names in the Royal Box on Friday included composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and Prince Michael of Kent.
