Cameraman’s Obnoxious Act at the China Open Backfires as Fans Brutally Obliterate the Self-Centered Move During Jannik Sinner’s ‘Vulnerable Moment’

The ATP 500 China Open is nearing its business end. Over the past five days, the Asian country has seen some gripping tennis action as top players have given their all to earn glory. In the end, the likes of Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Alexander Zverev, and Daniil Medvedev made it to the semifinals. While the other matches went on smoothly, one match caught the attention of fans. It was Sinner’s quarterfinal encounter against Grigor Dimitrov.

The duo was up against each other in a thrilling last-eight clash in Beijing. Although Sinner won that match, the cameraman caught him at his most vulnerable moment

During the quarterfinal encounter, the Italian star felt some discomfort and proceeded toward his chair. A few moments later, he pulled the dustbin and began puking. The incident was caught on camera as an alert cameraman captured the visual. However, after the image went viral on social media, fans started slamming the cameraman for not giving Sinner enough space.

Reacting to Sinner’s image that went viral on Reddit, one fan said, “And the photo is posted here and probably elsewhere on the internet so I’d say it’s not just the cameraperson not giving space :-)”

Meanwhile, one of the netizens called it hypocritical to blame the cameraman for capturing Sinner puking. The fan said, “Helping spread a photo, making it viral, etc. of him at a vulnerable moment? I was not being super serious like you are a terrible person, but blaming the cameraperson while you’re helping spread said image (which is why they get these images, to generate clicks) is a bit hypocritical lol.”
