Crowds gasped when live TV showed a grown man snatch a tennis cap from a child.
Polish player Kamil Majchrzak, 29, had just beaten Karen Khachanov in a dramatic five-set match. While signing autographs, he removed his Asics cap and handed it to a young fan. But in shocking footage, an older man grabbed it away, ignoring the boy’s protests.
Viewers online slammed the act as “disgusting” and “bullying.” One fan wrote: “Shame on this guy.” Another added: “Maturity doesn’t come with age, but with actions.” The clip quickly went viral across social media.
Majchrzak later posted on Instagram, asking for help to find the child. “I’ve got enough caps, and I want to make it right,” he explained. Hours later, he happily confirmed the boy had been found, thanking fans for their support: “We got it! All good now.”
Fans praised Majchrzak as a “legend” and a “class act.” Stories like this remind us how kindness can shine brighter than selfishness.
