Female streaker at the men's finals (1996)
As Richard Krajicek and MaliVai Washington were posing for pre-match pictures prior to their 1996 championship match at the All England Club, someone stole the spotlight from them. A female streaker wearing nothing but a tiny apron jumped out of the stands and ran across the court. While Washington admitted to being flustered, Krajicek felt differently. "She put a smile on my face and broke the tension," Krajicek said. He went on to win in straight sets.
Opinion: Whether Williams can beat top foes on clay is one of the main French Open storylines.
