Daniil Medvedev lost his cool on Wednesday, smashing his racket repeatedly before dumping the remains into a courtside trash bin during a crushing defeat at the Monte Carlo Masters. The world No. 10 suffered a stunning 6-0, 6-0 loss to Italian wildcard Matteo Berrettini—a “double bagel” defeat that marked the first time in Medvedev’s career he failed to win a single game at tour level. Medvedev hit 28 unforced errors, five double faults, and won just 17 of 67 points in the 49-minute match. Former Wimbledon finalist Berrettini, ranked No. 90, said the match was “one of the best performances of my life.” He added: “I think I missed three shots in the entire match and it is not easy against a tricky player like Daniil. The game plan was perfect and my weapons were working.” Berrettini is set to play against Brazilian tennis star Joao Fonseca next.
