Cameras captured the moment when American Frances Tiafoe went up, 30-0, on Aleksandar Kovacević in the second set with the match tied, 1-1, as per The Post.

Why was the sweet man under the impression he was the one getting her a drink? “Why did the other man get her one? What’s their connection? Are all three of them connected? “Are they in attendance together? How much do those drinks cost? Does the woman have a favorite drink at The Open? “Is this their first time attending? Where are they from? HELP ME PLEASE.”
