The sporting world is bracing for two enticing weeks of tennis action in New York. One of the biggest tournaments, the US Open, has begun on a strong note with fans treated to some thrilling tennis action. All eyes are on Flushing Meadows where top tennis stars are striving hard to become the best of the best. Amidst this, a young boy from the crowd has taken all the spotlight.

During the US Open, several fans have come into the limelight for crazy acts in the crowd. Last year, a beer-chugging girl went viral after chugging a glass of beer at Louis Armstrong Stadium. It was the second time she had performed such an act after becoming famous for the same act in 2021 in the same stadium. To the delight of fans, a young boy did a similar act.

A year after the beer-chugging girl’s video went viral, the spotlight was shifted to a young boy carrying a water bottle in his hand. As the cameras spotted him, there was a loud cheer from the audience.

Subsequently, the young boy began chugging the bottle of water as the crowd went rowdy watching the crazy act. In no time, he emptied the bottle and erupted in a big smile afterward.

The incident took place at Louis Armstrong Stadium where Caroline Wozniacki was up against Tatiana Prozorova of Russia. The former World Number 1 had a fairly straight-forward match as she prevailed in straight sets 6-3, 6-2. In the next round, she’ll take on Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic.

Further, it hasn’t been the first time that the crowd has been so vocal. Last year, the US Open beer chugger, Megan Lucky, appeared again to repeat her viral moment.
