Medvedev came close to disqualification again: "Daniil crossed the line".

Medvedev came close to disqualification again: Daniil crossed the line.

Daniil Medvedev seems to be losing control of his nerves.

Although he finally lost to Ben Shelton on Sunday, the Russian player was almost disqualified in the tie-break of the first set.

Very annoyed, the world number 4 threw his racket on the floor and it bounced straight back towards the audience.

In the end, Medvedev was simply given a warning.

That said, the referee's decision did not meet with consensus, with Frances Tiafoe addressing the supervisor directly to demand a firmer penalty.

Asked about the incident, former professional player Samantha Smith said: "For me, Daniil crossed the line. Tiafoe went to protest and we can understand that."

RUS Medvedev, Daniil
