The representative of the aggressor country, Andrei Rublev, had to call court doctors during the game.
Another inappropriate behavior from Russian athletes. This time, tennis player Andrei Rublev “recognized himself.” He started hitting himself with a racket during a match and injured his hand.
The incident occurred during the 1/8 finals of the US Open against Bulgarian Grigory Dimitrov. After another lost rally, the Russian could not control his emotions and started hitting his hand with the racket. Moreover, the blows were so powerful that the referee had to call doctors to the court to help Rublev.

As a result, Rublev lost to Dimitrov with a score of 3:6, 6:7, 6:1, 6:3, 3:6 and was eliminated from the US Open.
Let’s recall that earlier another tennis player from the aggressor country, Daniil Medvedev, swore at his own coach during a match.
