Open de Australia 2021 They landed on them during a match at this Australian Open
El public return to the stands of Rod Laver Arena to see the semifinals, once the restrictions in the state of Victoria have been removed due to the new coronavirus outbreak. The fans returned but those who they never left were the butterflies.
During this Australian Open they have been seen fluttering on the track. On more than one occasion they have perched near or even on the body or face of tennis players. Perhaps it may be a symbol of good fortune. NAomi Osaka saw one of these insects approach her in her third round match against Tunisian Ons Jabeur. He caught her with his fingers and led her off the track. At that moment, it landed on its nose before taking off.

Osaka won that match and then continued with that dynamic until reaching the final. This butterfly, yellow to orange in color, usually synonymous with success is near, according to some cultures.
A Novak Djokovic experienced a similar moment against Aslan Karatsev. He was prepared to pick up a point, when a butterfly has approached his face. Perhaps it is a talisman, as much as it was Greek food to beat Serena Williams, as Osaka acknowledged at the end of her match.

The number 1 in the world has fallen back and the insect has been able to continue its flight. The Serbian will also be in the final after beating the Russian 6-3, 6-4 and 6-2. This butterfly, white, is considered a symbol that good news will come for those who see it closely. For Djokovic, without a doubt, it was.
