Alexander Zverev defeated Nikoloz Basilashvili in his second round match at the ATP Shanghai Masters and while celebrating his win, the German tennis star gave a ball boy the fright of his life.
With the match evenly poised in the first set against the China Open champion, Zverev ran down a drop shot with ease before firing a backhand winner down the line to secure a crucial break of serve.
Zverev roared his delight and pumped his fist in celebration but the ball boy - just a yard away - was taken aback as he leaned back in stunned shock.
The hilarious incident was caught on camera and quickly went viral.
