Overview
- Tournament referee Jake Garner assessed $30,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct and $12,500 for racket abuse.
- Chair umpire Greg Allensworth granted Benjamin Bonzi another first serve after a photographer entered the court on match point, triggering a delay of more than six minutes.
- Medvedev riled the crowd and later destroyed his racket, then lost to Bonzi 6-3, 7-5, 6-7 (5), 0-6, 6-4.
- The fine removes roughly 39% of his $110,000 first-round prize money and caps a Grand Slam season of early exits.
- The USTA revoked the photographer’s credential; the shooter was identified as Selcuk Acar, who denied wrongdoing, while figures such as Boris Becker criticized Medvedev’s behavior.
