Medvedev beaten after photographer enters court

Medvedev beaten after photographer enters court

Daniil Medvedev, the former world No. 1 and US Open champion, was shockingly defeated by Benjamin Bonzi at the ongoing US Open tournament. The match took an unexpected turn when a photographer unexpectedly walked onto the court, disrupting the flow of the game. The incident occurred during the third set, with Medvedev leading 2-1. The intrusion by the photographer seemed to rattle Medvedev, who then went on to lose the set and ultimately the match in four sets. Bonzi, the Frenchman ranked outside the top 50, seized the opportunity and secured a remarkable victory over the Russian. The unexpected turn of events has sparked discussion about the need for tighter security measures at major tennis tournaments to prevent such disruptions. Medvedev's early exit from the US Open is a significant surprise, as he was considered one of the favorites to win the title.
