Daniil Medvedev, world No. 13 and 2021 US Open champion, was fined $42,500 at the 2025 US Open. The fine came after his angry reaction during a first-round match against Benjamin Bonzi. A photographer walked onto the court, causing a delay and a replay of Bonzi's serve. Medvedev shouted at the umpire and the crowd, showing frustration. Despite winning two sets, Medvedev lost the match in five sets. He also smashed his racket after the loss. The fine includes $30,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct and $12,500 for racket abuse. This was Medvedev's third straight first-round Grand Slam loss. The incident happened at Louis Armstrong Stadium, New York, in August 2025. (Updated 28 Aug 2025, 07:55 IST; source: link)
