Something was seriously bugging tennis star Caroline Wozniacki at Wimbledon.
According to Yahoo Sports, flying ants were swarming around her head and getting stuck in her hair. The bugs were so distracting that she reportedly asked the umpire for bug spray.
“They’re in my mouth and in my hair and everywhere — we need to do something. Is there a spray?” she reportedly said. “I want to be here to focus on tennis, not eating bugs.”
