Jessica Pegula notched one of the biggest, and weirdest, wins of her career against Iga Swiatek. (David Kirouac-USA TODAY Sports)<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Tennis is a sport where you will be shushed by an entire section of people for talking during a point. So you can probably guess how blaring the country music staple “Cotton-Eye Joe” during a top-5 matchup went down.<\/p>\n

The rude, but hilarious interruption came on Saturday during a semifinal match between No. 1 seeded Iga Swiatek and No. 4 seeded Jessica Pegula at the Canadian Open. During a critical point, with Pegula up 4-3 in a second-set tiebreak and three points from an upset, Pegula tried to hit a lob over Swiatek at the net.<\/p>\n

As the ball came down, the fast-paced lyrics “If it hadn’t been for Cotton-Eye Joe” rang through Montreal’s IGA Stadium and drew gasps from the crowd. The point was immedia<\/a>tely suspended as cameras caught Pegula in disbelief.<\/p>\n

The point was replayed, but the bizarre moment became a turning point in the match when Swiatek won 12 straight points to take not just the tiebreaker, but the first two game<\/a>s of the third set. Fortunately, Pegula recovered from there and notched the upset with a 6-2, 6-7 (4), 6-4 win.<\/p>\n

She had a laugh about the moment after the match.<\/p>\n

Pegula will face the winner of a semifinal match between Elena Rybakina and Liudmila Samsonova on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
