ATP Fines Daniil Medvedev €6,000 Over Monte Carlo Racket-Smashing

The modest penalty contrasts with far bigger fines he drew at last year's Grand Slams.

Overview

  • The ATP confirmed Monday to the Associated Press that Medvedev was fined €6,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct.
  • He smashed his racket seven times during a 6-0, 6-0 loss to Matteo Berrettini at the Monte Carlo Masters, the first double bagel of his career.
  • The chair umpire issued a code violation early in the second set in response to the outburst.
  • Despite the swift defeat, tournament pay records show he earned about €45,520 in prize money after a first-round bye.
  • The sanction fits a broader pattern during a results slump, with larger fines of $76,000 at the 2025 Australian Open and $42,500 at the 2025 U.S. Open.
