The 25-year-old didn't immediately recognise it was a spectator making the noise at first - at one point attempting to swat away the non-existent insect.
Stefanos Tsitsipas was forced to plead with an umpire on Wednesday to have a fan kicked out of his tennis match after accusing her of buzzing before he served.
The Greek world number 4 approached the umpire to say there was"a person imitating a bee" behind him at the Western and Southern Open in Ohio. The 25-year-old didn't immediately recognise it was a spectator making the noise at first - at one point, waving his racket in the air, attempting to swat away the non-existent bee."It's a buzz right before I serve," he said.
The umpire said he would"take care of it", but Tsitsipas went to a group of people behind him to find out who the culprit was. One fan immediately pointed at a woman in the front row. His opponent, American Ben Shelton, also came over to find out what was going on.
