Tennis player mocks Neymar's diving at Wimbledon

Jonas Bjorkman decided to have some fun after a mishap by impersonating the Brazil star’s now infamous hysterics against Mexico

Neymar’s theatrics are not just for football players any more.

The Brazil star’s rather dramatic reaction to a Miguel Layun cleat to the leg in the Selecao’s 2-0 round of 16 win over Mexico has drawn plenty of attention.

Since, Neymar has seen his nation eliminated from the World Cup in the quarter-finals, but his infamous moment live on, as the #NeymarChallenge makes the rounds on the internet.

The challenge has seen people either imitate Neymar’s reaction after the incident, or add the clip of him rolling to various situations for comedic effect.
