LONDON -- This year's Wimbledon tournament has had its fair share of moments, from Federer's effortless through-the-legs shot to the back of the court to Djokovic's less impressive rant at a ball girl.

Trust Beckham to up the ante, though, by casually catching a rogue ball during the men's doubles semifinals Thursday, before nonchalantly chucking it back onto the court.

He plucked the stray ball, which had deflected off a line judge's chair in Court One during Jamie Murray and John Peers' victory over Jonathan Erlich and Philipp Petzschner, from the air like it was no big thing.
