Medvedev's Stunning Collapse: Berrettini Wins 6-0 6-0 in 49 Minutes

In a shocking turn of events, Daniil Medvedev was defeated 6-0 6-0 by Matteo Berrettini at the Monte-Carlo Masters, with the match lasting a mere 49 minutes. Medvedev managed to secure only 17 points, while Berrettini became the first ATP player in 10 years to achieve a 'double bagel' against a top 10 opponent. The Italian player, who entered the tournament as a wild card, displayed ruthless efficiency, never allowing Medvedev to reach a game point on his serve. This marked the first time Medvedev has lost a tour-level match without winning a single game, and he has now lost 10 sets 6-0 throughout his career. Medvedev's frustration boiled over after falling 6-0 2-0 behind, prompting him to smash his racket in a fit of rage before calmly disposing of it. He ended the match with 28 unforced errors. Jamie Murray, a two-time Grand Slam doubles champion, described the outcome as 'shocking,' stating that it 'shouldn't happen' but did. Murray expressed his surprise at Medvedev's performance, given his strong showing in Indian Wells, where he reached the final. Berrettini, meanwhile, described his victory as 'one of the best performances of my life,' saying he 'missed only three shots in the entire match.' He attributed his success to a 'perfect game plan' and the effectiveness of his 'weapons.' This achievement marks only the fifth time in the Open Era that an ATP player has won 6-0 6-0 against a top 10 opponent, with the last occurrence being David Goffin's victory over Tomas Berdych at the Rome Masters in 2016.
