Medvedev faces difficulties in New York, but there is hope for Andreeva and Khachanov's breakthrough.

On August 24, Medvedev lost to Frenchman Benjamin Bonzi in the first round of the US Open tennis match. The match lasted for 3 hours and 46 minutes and ended with a score 6:3, 7:5, 6:7 (5:7), 0:6, 6:4. During the third set, Bonzi made an unsuccessful first serve, and a photojournalist appeared on the court, deciding that the match was over.

Referee Greg Allensworth, in turn, gave the French athlete the opportunity to interrupt the serve. This caused dissatisfaction with Medvedev, and the tribunes supported him. Later, the photojournalist was stripped of his accreditation. Medvedev himself was fined $ 42.5 thousand for his behavior and damage to the racket.
