Overview

• Chair umpire Greg Allensworth invoked the outside interference rule and restored Benjamin Bonzi’s first serve after a photographer stepped onto the court at match point.
• Play was halted for roughly six minutes as Daniil Medvedev confronted the umpire, gestured to the crowd, and later smashed a racket.
• Medvedev told reporters he expects to be fined for his conduct during the confrontation.
• USTA security escorted photographer Selcuk Acar from Louis Armstrong Stadium and revoked his US Open credential, saying he disregarded orders to sit and remain in position.
• Bonzi defeated Medvedev in five sets, 6-3, 7-5, 6-7 (5), 0-6, 6-4, as Acar publicly claimed he was told to step forward and said he plans legal action.
