Social media is buzzing about an event that took place at the ATP Challenger circuit, which is definitely causing a stir. After the match between Zsombor Piros and Marko Topo, there was a quite surreal moment during the final handshake. When Topo wins the last point to secure the victory, he lets out a tremendous scream while his enraged opponent throws his racket to the ground. As Topo continues screaming in celebration, he even sings in Piros' face, who doesn't take it well and they exchange some indistinguishable words. Watch the footage and draw your own conclusions.

Wow.

The most shocking handshake moment I’ve ever seen in a professional tennis match.

Racquet throwing.

Singing.

Screaming.

This is utter chaos. 💀
