The main favorite Daniil Medvedev lost to Stan Wawrinka in the 1/8 finals of the ATP tournament in Metz (category 250). After losing a point, the Russian dropped the racket, was booed by the audience, and his reaction was incomprehensible.

Ranked 284th, after two hours and 23 minutes of play, Wawrinka overtook the top spot in the world rankings until September 12 with a score of 6-4, (7)6-7, 6-3.

Ex-world leader Daniil behaved extremely inappropriately with the spectators present at the match.

Worried primarily about the level of his game, the Russian did not accept the booing of the audience and went into a difficult to explain monologue.

Medvedev several times imitated the gestures of a monkey, commented to the fans in the arena and made a sign with his finger that means “that’s all he can do.”

“This is not how a former world leader behaves,” several fans commented on social networks after Danylo’s speech.
