The Polish CEO who was caught on camera snatching a signed hat off a child at the US Open admitted he made a “serious mistake” after viral footage turned him into an international villain.

在美国网球公开赛上,波兰某公司CEO被拍到从一个小孩手中抢走了一顶签名帽。在网上疯传的视频让他沦为国际舆论中的“反派”。随后,他承认自己犯下了“严重错误”。

Piotr Szczerek, the boss of paving stone company Drogbruk, said he believed tennis star Kamil Majchrzak was signing the hat for him to give to his sons when he appeared to grab the cap from the little boy.

此人正是铺路石公司Drogbruk的老板彼得·谢雷克。他表示,当时以为网球明星卡米尔·迈赫扎克是在把签名帽递给他,让他转交给自己的儿子,于是才“看似”从小男孩手中抢走了帽子。

“I would like to unequivocally apologize to the boy who was harmed, his family, as well as all the fans and the player himself,” Szczerek wrote on Instagram. “I made a serious mistake.” 

谢雷克在Instagram上写道:“我想明确地向受到伤害的男孩、他的家人以及所有球迷和球员本人道歉。我犯了一个严重的错误。”

“In the emotions, in the crowd’s joy after the victory, I was convinced that the tennis player was handing the cap in my direction — for my sons, who had earlier asked for autographs,” he added. 

他补充道:“当时在胜利后人群的欢呼声中,我一激动,坚信那位网球选手就是把帽子递向我这个方向的——是给我儿子们的,他们之前要过签名。”

Szczerek’s caught-on-camera controversy drew some comparisons online to the viral Coldplay concert “kiss cam” incident, in which Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was caught embracing a woman who was not his wife and was an employee at his company.

谢雷克被拍到的争议画面在网络上引发了一些讨论,有人将其与Coldplay演唱会上疯传的“kiss cam”事件相提并论——Astronomer公司的CEO安迪·拜伦被拍到在演唱会上和一名女子拥吻。该女子并非他的妻子,而是他公司的员工。
