Viral Olympics pole vaulter Anthony Ammirati – who was eliminated thanks to his bulging manhood – is handed some bizarre advice by Serena Williams’ ex-coach
- The Olympic pole vaulter was denied the chance to compete for a medal
- Anthony Ammirati was devastated when his manhood knocked over a pole in Paris
- The former coach of tennis great Serena Williams has given Ammirati advice
Tennis legend Serena Williams’ former coach has advised an Olympic pole vaulter to employ a drag queen after Anthony Ammirati suffered a horrific accident at the Games.
Frenchman Ammirati was competing in the men’s event at the Stade de France when he had to make a jump of 5.70 metres, which would give him a chance to reach the final.
However, he and thousands of others watching the event were stunned when his manhood got caught on the pole, preventing him from making the high-pressure jump.
The 21-year-old appeared to have conquered the obstacle until a sensitive body part failed him on his third attempt, sending viewers on social media into hysterics after watching replays.
Later, after the viral moment, the 21-year-old admitted how frustrated he was about missing out on a medal in Paris, although he did not directly refer to his unfortunate accident.

Now Williams’ former coach has offered advice on the situation, with Rennae Stubbs giving her verdict on what Ammirati should do differently to avoid a repeat in the future.
The 53-year-old hilariously posted on X: ‘Seriously!!! When your sport is all about getting your body over a bar and it’s a matter of millimeters!
‘My man! Call a drag queen! She’ll teach you how to tuck it in! This is incredible!’.
Stubbs was previously ranked world number one in tennis doubles and won six Grand Slams before later taking on the role of coach.
Williams had Stubbs at her side during her last major tournament appearance two years ago, when she bowed out at the US Open and later retired as one of the sport’s greatest players ever.

Ammirati described his accident as “a great disappointment” and regretted the missed opportunity to compete in the Paris Olympics.
“I’m a little disappointed because I didn’t miss anything on the third attempt at 5.70m. What I did miss was a bit of jumping in training to fine-tune the settings. Just a technical session,” he told the French Athletics Federation.
“I was physically 100 percent, but I missed a little bit of pole vaulting. The conditions were good. It’s the first time I’m starting a competition without stress.
“Because I was a total outsider, I had one goal: to interact with the audience. I was almost there,” he added.
