An Australian woman who caught Novak Djokovic's shirt in front of a teenage fan after the Australian Open final auctioned it for charity because of the criticism she underwent.
According to the Herald Sun, Yael Rothschild auctioned off the shirt online and the mother of the girl who had complained it was taken from her, 14-year-old Melissa Cook, bought it for $5,500. Rothschild denied that she has snatched the shirt, and said that money raised from the auction will go to charity. A video dispute was widely shown on social media.
