NEW YORK -- Juan Martin del Potro's U.S. Open victory was tremendously exciting, overwhelming, and unexpected on several fronts. However, not even the young Argentine star himself could've forseen what would occur during his postgame press conference.

“For someone like me, to win such a prestigious tournament as this, is just so incredible," began del Potro after the electrifying match. "I would never have imagined I would be standing on this po—”

Del Potro had not gotten this far into his opening statement when he noticed someone he had never seen before -- yet someone who looked distinctly familiar -- running toward the podium.

Kanye West was seen literally jumping out of his limousine and running toward del Potro. Upon his arrival, he immediately grabbed the microphone, pulled it toward him, and began to speak.

“Alright Juan, I’m real excited that you won this, I’m gonna let you finish in a minute," West said, "but Roger Federer is one of the best tennis players of all time. Of all time!”

After this outburst, while West appeared to wait for a positive reaction from the press, he received only confused murmurs.

“Just sayin’,” he continued before handing the microphone back to del Potro with a shrug of his shoulders.

West then jogged back out of the press room, and into his limousine filled with drunk and hot girls, as well as Roger Federer, who could be seen high-fiving the rap star as the passenger door closed.

Meanwhile, the press conference continued as planned, as del Potro seemed to make very little of the intrusion, assuming it was custom practice after winning the U.S. Open.

"We sure got him," said Federer. "Now he's just like Taylor Swift. How's it feel to win now, big man?"

The next stop on West's tour? Southern California, where he intends to notify USC football head coach Pete Carroll that although his Trojans opened their season with an oustanding victory, Ohio State is still better.
