Overview

• A viral clip from late August shows Piotr Szczerek grabbing Kamil Majchrzak’s signed cap from a boy moments after the player’s win over Karen Khachanov.
• Szczerek posted an apology on Facebook/Instagram, calling it a serious mistake, saying he believed the cap was meant for his sons, and describing the episode as a lesson in humility.
• He said the cap was given back to the child; separately, Majchrzak found the boy, Brock, and presented him with a replacement signed cap and other merchandise.
• He rejected unauthorised statements circulating online, asserting neither he nor his family or representatives issued those earlier posts.
• Drogbruk’s online ratings plunged after waves of negative reviews, with reports of Google scores near 1.3–1.4 stars and Trustpilot limiting its page due to media attention.
