An ball girl got her fifteen minutes of fame when she reacted most amusingly to the task of clearing a cricket off the playing surface.
During a second round match between Australia's Lleyton Hewitt and Germany's Cedrik-Marcel Stebe, Stebe halted the match between points and indicated that there was a cricket on the court, just behind his baseline. Stebe, of course, could not be expected to flick his racquet and dispatch with the pest himself, so the poor ball girl had to do it herself. She picked the thing up like a trooper, but couldn't quite keep her composure with the creepy crawly little guy in her hand. Hilarity ensued.
