During the first match of the four major tennis tournaments held on February 12, the third round of the Australian Open women’s singles, a butterfly flew down to Naomi Osaka (23).
Osaka temporarily suspended the game in order to let the butterflies escape safely.
However, the butterfly did not fly far, but stopped on Osaka’s nose.

Naomi Osaka is a hero for tennis fans around the world.

And now it’s the same for butterflies.

In the middle of the second set of the third round of the Australian Open Women’s Singles on February 12, Osaka’s serve routine was hampered by a pretty butterfly. The butterfly flew fluffy around Osaka and stopped on his left foot. When one of the fans who was watching this called out from the audience, “Naomi, there is a butterfly on your leg!”, Osaka gently pushed the butterfly with his left hand instead of driving it away or ignoring it. I tried to catch it.

Laughter arose from the audience when he saw this, but Osaka managed to catch the butterfly and carry it to the edge of the court. However, when Osaka tried to put the butterfly on a towel with the Australian Open logo, the butterfly stopped on Osaka’s nose instead of flying far away. Osaka once again gently caught the butterfly and guided him off the court.

As applause rose from the audience, Osaka rushed back to the court.
