This has got to be an Olympics first.
French fencer Enzo LeFort’s phone appeared to fall out of his pocket during an Olympics match against Germany on Sunday.
LeFort, 24, started his individual foil bout against Germany’s Peter Joppich, 33, with what resembled a black mobile phone in his back left pocket.
Joppich made a move on LeFort that sent the Frenchman tumbling out of the piste, where his device apparently popped out of his pocket.
LeFort, with saber still in hand, quickly picked it up and handed it to a man off the side of the mat.
He lost the match, though gets a shot at redemption Friday when the French take on China in the men’s team foil at 8 a.m. ET.
