Watch: Tennis match suspended due to giant swarm of bees

Match officials had no choice but to finally suspend the match.

Alcaraz, Zverev, the chair umpire and fans all had to take cover as bees swarmed the court for more than an hour.

After the 45 minutes of the delay a beekeeper showed up and calmly started vacuuming the bees off of a camera. 

Alcaraz won the event a year ago. He did not have to deal with bees on his way to that championship.

None of the other matches at the tournament on Thursday were impacted by the bees.
