Ukrainian tennis player Elina Svitolina did not enjoy being introduced to a snake as part of an interview with a TV station at the Australian Open.
The fourth seed was asked to pose with the snake by Channel 7 and was clearly not thrilled, even though she managed to joke in a tweet about it afterwards.
Safe to say: @ElinaSvitolina is not a fan of snakes ???#ausopen pic.twitter.com/Lobrg9lje9
