Play was suspended for the rest of the day at the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth on Thursday following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Queen Elizabeth II attended matches at Wimbledon in 1957, 1962, 1977 and 2010. In 1977, the championship's centenary year, she watched British player Virginia Wade win the women's singles title.
"My philosophy about racing is simple,'' she said in a BBC documentary,"The Queen's Racehorses: A Personal View.""I enjoy breeding a horse that is faster than other people's. Her first winner was a horse called Monaveen, at Fontwell in 1949, and she went on to win all of the so-called"classics'' in British horse racing except for The Derby, another event she attended for most of her life.
"Her Majesty has been one of the greatest and most influential supporters in the history of horseracing," a statement read."Her passion for racing and the racehorse shone brightly throughout her life, not only through her close involvement in breeding and racing horses, but in her roles as a patron of The Jockey Club and Thoroughbred Breeders Association, and as the figurehead of Royal Ascot.
In a statement, Formula One said it sends"its deepest condolences to the Royal Family and to the people of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth."
