<p>Only at Wimbledon.</p>
<p>A Champagne cork from the stands landed on the court Sunday and interrupted the men's final between Carlos Alcaraz and Janik Sinner. Seriously.</p>
<p>The disturbance took place in the second set as Sinner prepared to serve. An audible pop was heard on the broadcast that didn't sound dissimilar to a ball being hit. But it wasn't.</p>
<p>Sinner backed away from his serve, and Alcaraz raised both of his hands in the air, understandably perturbed by the fan interference in a Grand Slam final.</p>

<p>The chair umpire pointed in the direction of the offending fan.</p>
<p>"Please don't pop Champagne corks just as the players are about to serve," she said. "Thank you."</p>
<p>It was a reasonable request.</p>
<p>Low laughter from the stands transitioned into boos. An ESPN camera then pointed to a ball girl who had rushed to remove the foreign object from the court. The cork had landed near Sinner, who had picked it up and tossed it away.</p>
<p>This isn't the first time a Champagne pop has interrupted action at the All-England Club. Ladies finalist Amanda Anisimova called a fan out for a Champagne pop during a match in the early rounds.</p>

<p>"Why are you opening it right now?" she understandably inquired.</p>
<p>In 2021, a Champagne cork made its way on to the court during a match between Coco Gauff and Elena Vesnina.</p>
<p>Fortunately for Sinner, the interference on his serve didn't impact his play. After dropping the first set, Sinner went on to a 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 victory to claim his first Wimbledon title and his fourth Grand Slam championship.</p>
