Content creators drop the ball
During Naomi Osaka's match against Anastasia Zakharova at this year's US Open earlier this week, a gaggle of ring light-wielding influencers who were packed in a luxury suite became enough of a distraction that the umpire paused the match and repeatedly asked them to quiet down.
The recent incident at the US Open, where a group of influencers in a luxury suite became a distraction during a match, highlights the growing issue of content creators disrupting events.
