Two Just Stop Oil protesters interrupted play at Wimbledon by throwing orange-coloured confetti and jigsaw pieces on to Court 18.
The All England Club said they had been arrested after holding up Grigor Dimitrov and Sho Shimabukuro's match.
A man and woman ran on to the court, throwing the confetti and jigsaw pieces from a Wimbledon 'Centre Court View' jigsaw puzzle box on to the grass. AELTC chief executive Sally Bolton had said earlier this week the club had "taken account of what we've seen elsewhere so security has been uplifted in various places around the grounds".
