#3. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Carla Suarez Navarro helping out the ball kids during the Australian Open
The first Grand Slam of the year saw a number of upsets and thrilling encounters but it also witnessed some very kind gestures from the players. Two such gestures were made by Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Carla Suarez Navarro when they came to the aid of distressed ball kids.During the first Day of the tournament, Carla Suarez Navarro stopped her first round match because a ballboy was feeling ill due to the heat and wasn’t able to respond to her. Navarro put her arm around the young lad and escorted him off the court.A few days later, during his third round match against Omar Jasika, Tsonga noticed that the ball girl was feeling unwell so he took the balls from the ball girl’s hand, took her by the arm and escorted her off the court. Both players received a lot of recognition on social media for their actions.
