Snake interrupts play at a tennis tournament in Australia
McCabe had just won the first set 6-2 against the 2020 US Open winner when the lizard was seen among electrical wires on the side of the court in full front of the audience.
On Saturday, Dominic Thiem’s Brisbane International qualifying match against Australian James McCabe was called off after a snake slithered courtside.
McCabe had just won the first set 6-2 against the 2020 US Open winner when the lizard was seen among electrical wires on the side of the court in full front of the audience.
Play was halted until a snake catcher arrived and managed to tease it into a bag.
It was not clear what type of snake it was, but Australia is home 20 of the world’s 25 most venomous.
However, deaths from bites are rare.
