Ukrainian tennis player Sergiy Stakhovsky
stopped play at the French Open on Monday to
use his iPhone to snap a photo of a disputed
line call.
The bizarre interruption happened during 101st-
ranked Stakhovsky's first-round loss to Richard
Gasquet of France. The call in question
happened in the first set and when Stakhovsky's
argument with the chair umpire failed, he put
down his racket and took on the role of amateur
sports photographer.
Stakhovsky grabbed his iPhone and leaned down
close to the red clay to capture a close-up shot
of a mark near the line.
The tennis pro later tweeted the image he took
with his smartphone.
