Prince Oscar and Prince Nicolas of Sweden were both in for a treat on Saturday as the royal cousins were taken by their respective fathers, Prince Daniel and Christopher O’Neill, to the Stockholm Open.
The royal pair were seen in the royal box watching American Taylor Fritz triumph over Argentina’s Thiago Agustin Tirante, which marked Taylor’s first-ever indoor title.
Oscar and Nicolas both looked smart for the outing, with Oscar, ten, wearing a black pullover jumper, while Nicolas, 11, opted for a navy knit jumper with a white collared shirt underneath.
The duo appeared to be on their best behaviour as they enjoyed the tennis match, with Daniel seen leaning over to speak to his son at one point.

Oscar’s love of sports
Prince Oscar appears to be a fan of sports, and last year, he was joined by his older sister, Princess Estelle, and two of his royal cousins at a thrilling ice hockey match.
Oscar and Estelle were joined by their parents, Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel, alongside Prince Carl Philip’s eldest sons, Prince Alexander and Prince Gabriel.

Estelle, Oscar and Gabriel were seen enthusiastically reacting throughout the match, letting out large cheers and reacting with shock at other moments.
And it should come as no surprise that Oscar is also a huge fan of football, and during this year’s World Cup, Daniel introduced him to members of the Swedish squad.
The youngster couldn’t contain his joy as he met his idol, Alexander Isak, with the young royal wearing a shirt bearing the player’s team number. Alexander posed alongside the royals, and even signed Oscar’s shirt, before the ten-year-old met other members of the team and even watched them in training.
