Players at the tournament have also pocketed hundreds of the towels each day as souvenirs for themselves or their teams, with some supporters asking them for one.
Italian player Flavio Cobolli was mocked by Wimbledon's own social media team after being seen piling towels into his bag during his second-round victory last week.
An interviewer asked him after his win: 'I saw you picked up about 15 towels. Are you giving them out to the crowd after?' Fans were heard shouting and Cobolli then replied: 'Thanks, guys. A lot of Italian [fans]. But the towels are for my team.'
Cobolli then threw out one towel to the crowd before making a gesture which signalled they would get no more - and the Wimbledon TikTok channel later posted a short clip captioned: 'Move over Iga, we have a new towel thief on our hands.'
