Paris: A man ran onto the court during the second set of Sunday's French Open final, waved a flag and tried to place a red hat on Roger Federer's head.
Federer pushed the intruder aside, and security guards ran onto the court to subdue the man, but he jumped over the net to get away.
A security guard from Robin Soderling's side of the court then ran out and tackled the man.
He was carried off the court by three security guards.
Federer won the first set 6-1 and was leading 2-1 in the second set when the man jumped onto the court.
