Watch: Self-proclaimed comedian interrupts Nick Kyrgios' Australian Open match with carnal noises
World No.17 Nick Kyrgios beat World No. 65 Viktor Troicki in straight sets 7-5, 6-4, 7-6 at the Hisense Arena in the second round of the Australian Open.
Kyrgios had his mental strength tested on the court with the sound system of the stadium going bad, a heckler making inappropriate noises and a helicopter unusually hovering over the court for a long time during the match.
The sound system of the Hisense court disintegrated badly which made the court referee's voice sound really funny and amused the spectators sitting there. The referee had to give up the mic and shout instructions on the players instead to reinstate the atmosphere of a tennis match rather than a comedy show.
When all that was settled, a social media self-proclaimed entertainer Jamie Zhu decided to make a selfie video while making carnal noises which caused Kyrgios to stop while serving the ball to his opponent. The man started crying out nonsensical howls for about 40 seconds interrupting the match between the Australian and the veteran Serbian. He was quickly escorted by the security while the crowd booed him. He might get a lifetime ban from attending matches at the Hisense Arena.
Everyone was hoping for a good match without interruptions after that but a helicopter kept hovering over the court in a very unusual fashion. The Australian stood his ground and won the match in straight sets to set-up a match with Jo Wilfried Tsonga in the third round of the Australian Open to be held at the Rod Laver Arena.
