Tennis player Kamil Majchrzak encounters a young fan whose hat was swiped by CEO Piort Szczerek
In the bustling atmosphere of the US Open Tennis Championships, an unexpected incident took place that quickly became the talk of social media. Polish tennis player Kamil Majchrzak was meeting with fans when a young boy, holding a large ball covered in autographs, approached him. Majchrzak, in a kind gesture, offered the young fan his signed cap, but the cap was snatched away by Piotr Szczerek, a Polish CEO and millionaire.
The video of Majchrzak meeting the young boy was shared on his Instagram Story, carrying the caption "Today, after warm up, I had a nice meeting. Do you recognise?" The incident, however, was not mentioned in the video. The video soon went viral, sparking widespread outrage against Szczerek.
Many users criticised Szczerek's actions, with some demanding that he be barred from attending future US Open matches. Some even called for a boycott of his company. The video's virality led to a wave of sympathy for the young fan who never received his signed cap.
In response to the backlash, Szczerek apologised for his action, explaining that he had not realised the significance of the cap to the young fan. However, it was later reported that his partner had tucked the signed cap into her bag after snatching it from the young boy.
Undeterred by the incident, Majchrzak used his Instagram account to ask for help finding the young boy who had originally received his signed cap. His efforts paid off, as he was able to personally reunite with the young fan at the US Open Tennis Championships, handing him the signed cap in person.
The young boy, overjoyed, wore the signed cap in a photo with Majchrzak, captioned "Hello World. Together with Brock, we wish you a great day!" The incident serves as a reminder of the power of social media and the importance of considering the feelings of others, especially in public settings.
