Wimbledon coverage chose a terrible moment to zoom in on Madison Keys’ coach/fiancé Bjorn Fratangelo. “Get the camera off him while he’s picking his nose!” Here’s how that looked on ESPN. (H/T @rclaus07.) pic.twitter.com/atLuJHq3a3

The moment goes on for so long, one of the announcers breaks out into laughter and has to tell the camera operator to cut away from the poor man.
The reaction on X has been mixed, to say the least … with some sharing their disgust while others are pointing out the dude’s human — and sometimes even the best of us have to pick!
A sad ending to an incredible match 💔

Unfortunately, the match didn’t end as humorously … ’cause Keys had to retire from the match early after a leg injury limited her movement. She’s out of the tournament now while Paolini has a date with Emma Navarro in the quarterfinal.
