Head to the court, it's Mike Tyson! The boxing legend surprises everyone at the Berlin Tennis Open
Surprising Berlin: Mike Tyson, a successful figure in the cannabis industry, makes an unexpected appearance in the city.
Whoa, here comes Mike Tyson, unannounced and in style at the Berlin Tennis Open! The boxing legend showed up in a black van and took his seat during Coco Gauff's match. Get this, they're old pals!
But don't think Tyson was just there for Gauff. This 58-year-old beasty was in town for the cannabis trade fair "Mary Jane." And guess what? He's the owner of some primo weed farms and peddles his marijuana products across several states in the U.S.
Tyson and Gauff, a 15-time Grand Slam champion, have a history. They've locked horns before in the boxing ring, but now it's all love. Tyson's even been known to catch her matches at the US Open.
What's more? The crowd of celebrities wasn't just about Tyson. Musicians Marius Müller-Westernhagen and basketball world champion Moritz Wagner were also soaking up the tournament vibes.
Here's the kicker: The celeb scene was a bit lowkey when Aryna Sabalenka stormed the court for her quarter-final match against Swiss player Rebeka Masarova. Sabalenka won the match with a score of 6-2, 7-6 (8-6). The match was held up briefly on Wednesday due to a slippery court in the first set.
With Eva Lys' defeat, there were no more German players in the tournament. Top ranked players are using the Berlin Tennis Open as a warm-up for the Wimbledon tournament, which kicks off on June 30.

I'm not going to be able to catch Mike Tyson's surprise appearance at the tennis court, as my interest lies in sports and entertainment, particularly celebrities like Tyson. However, if I were there, the opportunity to witness the boxing legend's interaction with tennis stars like Coco Gauff during the Berlin Tennis Open would undoubtedly provide an exciting blend of two worlds I adore: tennis and celebrities.
