This fan was too serious.
Tennis Hall of Famer John McEnroe was clearly frustrated during a tense encounter with a tenacious fan while at Melbourne Airport.
McEnroe spent the past two weeks in Melbourne broadcasting the Australian Open.
McEnroe told the fan to “go f–k yourself” after they followed him through the airport and demanded photos, despite the tennis legend repeatedly denying the request.
“Do you need a hand with any of your bags?” the fan asked, as seen in a now-viral video online.
“I need you to stay away from me, OK,” McEnroe, 66, replied as he walked into the airport carrying a backpack, a guitar and a roller suitcase.
The fan continued following McEnroe, who was being escorted by security, and seemingly was recording on a phone.
“This guy — just get away, OK?” McEnroe said to his security. “Can we stop him?
“Whoa, woah, hold up. Everyone, stop. Time’s up.”
McEnroe yelled at the fan after they asked for a photo again.
“Will you stop? Stop! Jesus Christ! Are you kidding me?” McEnroe said.
“I still love you, John,” the fan, who was holding some sort of blue folder, said.
“Go f–k yourself,” McEnroe replied.
The fan, whose face was blurred in the video, has not been identified.
McEnroe — a three-time Wimbledon winner and four-time U.S. Open champion — was known for his outbursts on the court, including screaming, “Are you serious?”, at one umpire.
At this year’s Australian Open, top-ranked Carlos Alcaraz beat Novak Djokovic on Sunday to complete his career Grand Slam.
