Tennis player saves bug, and a few seconds later it is crushed by a ball boy
A video of a clip from the Citi DC Open tennis match between American Emma Navarro and Greek Maria Sakkari has gone viral. The latter noticed a bug on the court and wanted to save it, but her plans were thwarted by a ball boy.
In the video, Sakkari picks up the bug from the court and carefully carries it to the fence. The camera follows the tennis player's actions the entire time. Commentators also praised the athlete's actions. "Good job, Sakkari, you need to take care of wildlife!" they say.
A few seconds later, the ball boy's foot appears in the frame: he accidentally crushed the insect that Sakkari had saved. The athlete noticed this and laughed.
