Medvedev blowup draws hefty fine

DANIIL MEDVEDEV sits dejected after losing in five sets to Benjamin Bonzi. U.S. OPEN REPORT

The total fines, issued by tournament referee Jake Garner, came to $30,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct and an additional $12,500 for racket abuse.

With Medvedev facing match point in the third set, Bonzi missed on his first serve and was preparing for the second when a photographer appeared to mistakenly step onto the court.

Chair umpire Greg Allensworth announced that Bonzi would be given another chance at his first serve “because of the delay caused by an outside interference.”

Medvedev was not happy. The 2021 U.S. Open champion berated Allensworth at the chair and insulted him while leaning into a microphone to address the crowd. Even as he was walking back onto the court, Medvedev used arm gestures to encourage the crowd to continue expressing its displeasure with the decision, although he motioned for the fans to calm down.
