Russian tennis player Daniel Medvedev commented on the altercation with the spectator during the semi-final of the ATP final tournament in Turin against the Italian Jannik sinner .
World number three Medvedev lost to 22-year-old Sinner with a score of 3:6, 7:6 (7:4), 1:6. The tennis players spent almost two and a half hours on the court.
Having lost a point in the third game of the third set with a score of 2:0 in favor of Sinner, Medvedev angrily threw his racket at the advertising board, walked towards the stands and pointed his finger in the direction stands. The arena reacted to his behavior with a disapproving roar.
– What happened? To be honest, nothing like that. I lost my mind a little because I gave the game away on my serve. There were large crowds throughout the week. As I said before the match, it’s normal that they support Sinner. But when I hit a few good shots, I felt… – it’s not support, but a lot of applause, which was very nice.
I think overall everything went well. I felt good energy on the pitch. That’s why, after the match, I thanked the crowd.
Yeah, so I was a little lost. He broke, I lost. There is nothing special to comment on here,” Medvedev said at a press conference.
