The British player, in a gesture of frustration, hit a woman in the crowd in the stands, fortunately without consequences

Auckland-born Norrie was facing match point against Facundo Diaz Acosta of Argentina when he lightly tossed his racquet into the air. The racquet struck a woman in a court-side box who was unhurt. Video of the incident showed a woman in a hat reacting quickly and deflecting the racquet away as the crowd gasped.

Cameron Norrie flipped his tennis racket into the stands, hitting a woman who was watching his ASB Classic match in Auckland. The British tennis star later apologized and said he was not happy with his behavior.
