A viral video captured a man snatching an autographed hat from a child at the U.S. Open. Polish CEO Piotr Szczerek apologized on Instagram, calling his action a serious mistake and describing it as a painful but necessary lesson in humility. Szczerek said he believed the cap was being handed toward him for his sons amid the crowd's excitement. The tennis player Kamil Majchrzak asked followers to help identify the boy after realizing the cap had not reached him. Majchrzak later reunited with the boy, Brock, and gave him a bag of merchandise.
I would like to unequivocally apologize to the boy who was harmed, his family, as well as all the fans and the player himself, Polish CEO Piotr Szczerek wrote on Instagram, according to the New York Post. I made a serious mistake. Szczerek continued: In the emotions, in the crowd's joy after the victory, I was convinced that the tennis player was handing the cap in my direction for my sons, who had earlier asked for autographs. It is a painful but necessary lesson in humility for me.
After the match, I didn't record that my cap didn't get to the boy, Majchrzak wrote. Hey guys, could you help me find the kid from my match. If it's you (or your parents see this), please send me a DM. Majchrzak was eventually reunited with Brock, the victim in the hat-snatching, according to The Daily Mail. Video showed the tennis star shaking hands and talking with the boy before handing over a bag full of merchandise. Majchrzak's caption read: Hello World, Together with Brock we wish you a great day!
