WATCH: Verdasco sends racket flying in Paris

Fernando Verdasco likes to keep things interesting on court. During his second-round match against Kevin Anderson in Paris, the Spaniard performed a bit of a circus act.

He didn't like how the point played out at 5-6, 40-40, giving an exasperated expression, before chucking his racket high into the air. The world No. 39 was quickly reprimanded by the umpire.

Lucky for him, Verdasco didn't get penalized and he went on to secure the upset, 5-7, 6-4, 7-5. Moving on, Veradsco kept his good luck rolling with a 6-4, 6-4 upset over fifth-seeded Dominic Thiem on Thursday.

It's the 33-year-old's first ATP Masters 1000 quarterfinal appearance since 2012.
