There is a new gaggle of groupies who really do believe they are the stars of the show, given they - vicariously, undeservedly - have millions of brain-dead online followers.

You could barely believe your eyes. There she was, 26-year-old Paige Lorenze, climbing uninvited on to the court at the Queen's Club Championships to pose for pictures with her boyfriend Tommy Paul, for all the world as though she, not him, had actually won last week's tournament.
