STREAKER STRIKES AT WIMBLEDON
newsandstar.co.uk ^ | 7/4/06 | unknown

A STREAKER interrupted play by doing a cartwheel on Centre Court at Wimbledon today during the quarter-final match between Russian beauties Maria Sharapova and Elena Dementieva.

The man, who appeared to be in his late twenties and was completely naked except for white trainers and black socks, came on to the court on Sharapova’s side and did a cartwheel.

Security staff came on to the court immediately and held out a large red blanket which he charged at before being wrapped up and ushered away, to great applause from the crowd.

Sharapova turned her back to the streaker during his performance while her opponent appeared to smile.

Play resumed after a matter of minutes with Sharapova one set ahead.

Well, (ahem) it's never easy being pitted against a connoisseur of cornball country songs such as myself.

Looks like this streaking man could be PGA and European Tour golfer Colin Montgomerie.
