For 125 years, the Cincinnati Open has been a staple in the world of tennis, attracting fans from all over who have amassed a wealth of knowledge about the sport. But this week, Frances Tiafoe and Caroline Wozniacki decided to put those fans to the test in a unique and exciting way.
Surprising fans as they piled into one of the tournament’s official vehicles, Tiafoe and Wozniacki greeted them with selfies, hugs, and handshakes. The fans were in for a special treat as the two tennis stars unveiled an impromptu quiz show, testing their knowledge on key facts about the tournament and its players.
Questions ranged from the player with the most Cincinnati titles (Roger Federer, with seven) to current events on the tour. And the stakes were high, with prizes up for grabs including free ice cream and $50 in merchandise credit.
But just how much did the fans know? All was revealed in a video capturing the fun-filled quiz show.
This wasn’t the first time this year that a tournament has unleashed players as undercover operatives among the fans. We’ve seen it before in Indian Wells, with Alex de Minaur playing the role of a parking attendant and Ons Jabeur giving directions. And who could forget the comedic genius of Daniil Medvedev selling merch incognito?
And let’s not overlook the time Caroline Wozniacki took to the streets of North America as an “Uber driver” for Daria Kasatkina, a hilarious adventure chronicled in the latter’s popular vlog.
The tennis world is always full of surprises and excitement, and with players like Tiafoe and Wozniacki at the helm, fans are always in for a treat.
