PARIS (AP) - A man ran onto the court during the second set of
Sunday's French Open final, waved a flag and tried to place a red
hat on Roger Federer's head.
Federer pushed the intruder aside, and security guards ran onto
the court to subdue the man, but he jumped over the net to get
away. A security guard from Robin Soderling's side of the court
then ran out and tackled the man.
He was carried off the court by three security guards.
Federer won the first set 6-1 and was leading 2-1 in the second
set when the man jumped onto the court.
