A few days ago, the 61-year-old played a match in Martha's Vineyard that took an unexpected turn.

Two men were playing on the court next to her, and according to Page Six, one of them might have been trying to impress Obama.

But just as he was about to reach a ball, a mishap occurred, and he took a nasty tumble to the ground.

For a brief moment, Obama looked at him, puzzled, until she realized that he was seriously injured.

She immediately gave her Secret Service team a knowing look, and shortly afterwards, the six security guards rushed to the injured man.

They tended to him immediately and administered first aid until the ambulance arrived, at which point he was diagnosed with a torn thigh muscle.

While they waited for the rescuers, Obama had a friendly chat with the athlete and even took a photo with him!

The second player, who was the injured man's brother-in-law, told the outlet, "Michelle Obama was on the next court and we were giving her her space."

"But when my brother-in-law fell, she immediately sent her Secret Service team into action," he continued.

"They were amazing, and so was she. She came right over and said hi to all of us and suggested a picture."
