Woman Goes Viral After Hilariously Whipping Out Her Phone To Capture Shirtless U.S. Open Player

Audience members preserving the action at sporting events is nothing out of the ordinary.

After all, an exciting play is worth revisiting and sharing with others online to prove you were there in person to experience it.


But why is one woman who whipped out her smartphone to capture a moment at the US Open going viral?

It turns out she was either filming or taking snapshots of a hunky pro tennis player who was off the court and changing into a fresh shirt, right in front of her.

The match might have been paused, but as far as she was concerned, the male athlete was still serving love.

In the clip, the pro tennis player who was wearing a white headband and a sweaty white crew neck was seen in the foreground.

Behind him in the courtside seats were two women, one of whom casually took in the atmosphere until she did a double-take after noticing him taking off his shirt.

She quickly seized an opportunity to capture the quick change by reaching into the bag on her lap to pull out her phone for a thirst trap photo or video.

Many Twitter users related to the woman who was making her own instant replay clip.


Some of the comments, however, included criticism.

Some users asked if the reactions would have been the same if the genders were swapped with the tennis player being a woman.


Meanwhile, the back and forth took on a life of its own off the court.

While the sexism questions are points to ponder, the online debate surrounding an existing "double standard" regarding photos of shirtless players hasn't happened.

Female tennis players are not allowed to take off their shirts on the court–even with a sports bra on–while their male counterparts are able to do so.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
