The former coach of tennis icon Serena Williams has advised an Olympic pole vaulter to recruit the services of a ‘drag queen’ after Anthony Ammirati endured a nightmare mishap at the Games.
Frenchman Ammirati was competing in the men’s event at the Stade de France when he was trying to clear a 5.70 metre jump that would have put him in with a chance of making the final.
However, he and thousands of others watching the events unfold were stunned when his manhood caught the pole and caused him to fail the high-pressure jump.
The 21-year-old looked set to clear the obstacle until the sensitive part of his body denied him during his third attempt, leaving viewers in hysterics on social media after watching replays.
Later, following the viral moment, the 21-year-old admitted his frustration at missing out on a medal in Paris, albeit without directly referencing his unfortunate mishap.
Now the former coach of Williams has offered advice on the situation, with Rennae Stubbs giving her verdict on what Ammirati should do differently to avoid a repeat in the future.
Posting on X, the 53-year-old hilariously tweeted: ‘Seriously!!! When your sport is all about getting your body over a bar and it’s a matter of millimetres!
‘My man! Call a drag queen! She’ll teach u how to tuck it! This is unbelievable!’.
