A first-round match at the Miami Open experienced a very unusual interruption when an iguana casually wandered onto the court.
The second Masters 1000 event of the year is currently taking place in Florida.
Elena-Gabriela Ruse and Polina Kudermetova were playing their first-round match on Court 7.
The match had a memorable moment when play was briefly stopped because a spectator got a little too close to the action, and that spectator was an iguana.
Two points into the third set, an iguana walked across the court.
Both players had to wait while the iguana was guided away with an umbrella.
Spectators in Florida are probably more accustomed to seeing reptiles, so the crowd remained calm.
Once the iguana was off the court, the match quickly resumed.
Kudermetova, 21, won the second set 7-6, tying the match after Ruse won the first set 6-1.
Ruse, 27, then recovered and won the final set 6-2.
Ruse will now play against 29th seed Magdalena Frech in the second round.
