The US Open shared a public notice regarding photography amid debates on influencers and etiquette at the tennis tournament in New York.
“Please refrain from the use of flash photography or other lighting during match play. Thank you and enjoy the tennis!” a sign posted outside of Louis Armstrong Stadium read.
It came after a chair umpire had to pause the first-round match between Naomi Osaka and Anastasia Zakharova on Monday due to an overzealous group of influencers in a suite at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
