Weirdest thing we’ve ever seen at Wimbledon – tennis fan invited onto court after heckling women players
So a guy called Chris Quinn was shouting advice to the players in an invitation women’s doubles match at Wimbledon when one of them suggested he put his money where his mouth is – and he did just that.
The player was Kim Clijsters, a four-time Grand Slam winner, and she even found him a pair of shorts that he miraculously managed to squeeze into to.
"That's a man. In a skirt. Trying to return Kim Clijsters' serve"

In a lacklustre championships, it could be the most exciting thing to happen at this year’s Wimbledon.
Here’s our favourite bit of commentary.
“I really hope we don’t have a camera shot from behind.”

Great work mate. You gonna pay off your mortgage selling that skirt on eBay?
