Rafael Nadal and Michael Mmoh have just found themselves in a rather weird situation. While they were playing the 2nd round of the Australian Open, their match was stopped as a woman started to behave rather strangely.
The lady was making loud noises when Nadal was about to serve to disrupt the game. Eventually, when she was asked to stop, she showed the middle finger to the Spanish Legend. The situation was so surreal that Rafa started having problems containing his laughter. Eventually, the woman was ejected from the Arena.
With Rafa easily in control of the match (6-1 6-4) that was the only thrill up to that moment.
A fan just gave Rafa the finger. Look at his reaction: “what, me? “ 😂 pic.twitter.com/fY3npCNTrn
