A cat caused a little chaos at a recent tennis match in Rome.
Doubles players Lukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo were playing against Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah for a place in the semi-finals of the tournament.
Then this cheeky cat sprinted across the court mid-point.
A cat-astrophe was avoided as the lucky cat narrowly avoided being hit by an overhead smash.
The umpire decided to replay the point.
