Wimbledon 2023: Just Stop Oil protesters interrupt play twice at All England Club
Just Stop Oil protesters interrupted play twice at Wimbledon by throwing orange-coloured confetti and jigsaw pieces on to court 18.
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. Wimbledon organisers previously urged spectators to "be considerate" when they were asked about the possibility of climate change protests, and they also increased security checks at this year's event.Despite the measures, Wimbledon became the latest sporting event to find its green surface turned briefly orange.
From my left-hand side two members of the public jumped on to the court, they both revealed Just Stop Oil T-shirts and they threw a box which revealed a lot of orange-golden confetti and some other blue material.
