Monte Carlo Masters: Medvedev crushed Berrenttini with a double bagel in 49 minutes

Daniil Medvedev faced a crushing double bagel defeat in 49 minutes against Italian Matteo Berrettini at the Monte Carlo Masters on Wednesday, April 7, 2026.

Russian tennis star Medvedev, world number 10, failed to win a single game in his first match of the clay court season as Berrettini advances to the third round.

After losing the first set 6-0, Medvedev lost control when he was broken for the fourth consecutive time and fell 2-0 in the second set.

The frustrated Medvedev began banging his racquet against the back fence, before smashing it into the clay four times.

The Russian then threw the broken racket into the trash.

Berrettini then won four more games in a row to seal the match in 49 minutes and hand Medvedev the crushing defeat of his career.

Berrettini, a former Wimbledon runner-up, became the first ATP player to win a match without losing a single match against a top 10 player in a decade.

For the uninitiated, it is the first time Medvedev has lost a match at the tour level without winning a game, and he has already received 10 bagels in his career.
