The final set of Wednesday's first-round matchup between the Czech Republic's Jiri Vesely and Germany's Tommy Haas at the Miami Open got quite exotic.
A large iguana made its presence felt by sitting atop a nearby scoreboard before scurrying across the court and eventually making camp on another scoreboard.
The reptile was eventually picked up with a towel and taken away as play resumed.
Vesely went on to defeat Haas 6-7 (5), 6-3, 7-5.
