Alexis Ohanian reacts to the video
In the video, a grown-up man is standing in the crowd with kids, with one baseball ball in each hand. From what it looks like, the San Diego Padres fans are all waiting for an autograph from one of their favorite players before the All-Star game. However, the man in the video was seen pushing and elbowing the kids around to make his way to the front.
Ohanian, being a father as well as a husband of an athlete, did not approve of the behavior of the fan. The co-founder of Reddit stressed that although the man might be taking the autograph for his children, it’s not the right way to behave.

Serena Williams to play in the National Bank open
Serena Williams had a disappointing return to competitive action. She lost her first-round match of the Wimbledon Championships 2022 against Harmony Tan of France. The former world number 1 looked nowhere close to her best. However, the 40-year-old has made sure to not repeat a similar mistake in the US Open. While Serena played just one tournament, the Eastbourne Doubles, before going into Wimbledon, she has made plans to go fully prepared to the US Open.
