Redfoo, the wild-haired performer, is making netizens have a field day on social media with their funny reaction. It all started when he made his pro tennis debut in Egypt at an international tournament.

They were a proto-viral musical comet, but Redfoo resurfaced this week for an unlikely reason—his attempt at a tennis career. The ex-boyfriend of Belarusian two-time major champion Victoria Azarenka played in the International Tennis Federation's M15 Sharm El Sheikh tournament this past week in Egypt.

LMFAO's Redfoo is getting back out on the court, this time making his professional tennis debut in Egypt after previously attempting to compete in the 2013 U.S. Open. The rapper played Norway's Leyton Rivera during the Sharm El Sheikh tournament.

Stefan Kendal Gordy, 49, or “Redfoo,” made his professional tennis debut in Egypt’s M15 Sharm El Sheikh. It is part of the ITF Men’s World Tennis Tour. There may be some dispute about whether this was his actual debut. Tennis World notes Gordy initially jumped to professional tennis in September 2016.

Redfoo is taking shots at a career in tennis. The LMFAO artist, who catapulted his way through the charts with hits like "Shots," "Sexy and I Know It" and "Party Rock Anthem," has put the microphone down and picked up a racket.
