Tennis stars in feisty exchange as they barge and shove each other before umpire steps in

Two tennis stars came to blows at the net during an event in France before being separated by the umpire.

World No. 64 Corentin Moutet was beaten by Adrian Andreev of Bulgaria in front of his home crowd at the Open d'Orleans on Thursday.

Andreev, ranked 247th in the world, emerged victorious 2-6, 7-6, 7-6, before the two players approached the net as is customary at the end of the match. The pair were involved in a strong handshake before barging into one another, much to the shock of the crowd in Orleans.
