In a strange turn of events, World No. 2 Jannik Sinner was taken aback Wednesday when a fan in Saudi Arabia ran onto the court and asked for his jacket. The Netflix cameras captured the incident after the Italian finished his on-court interview following his 6-2, 6-3 victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas in the Six Kings Slam exhibition tournament. As seen in the video below, Sinner initially maintained a calm demeanor, shaking hands with the fan and engaging in conversation with him.
