Medvedev Suffers Stunning 6-0 6-0 Defeat to Berrettini in Monte-Carlo Masters

In a shocking turn of events, Daniil Medvedev was handed a devastating 6-0 6-0 defeat by Matteo Berrettini at the Monte-Carlo Masters on Wednesday, with the entire match lasting a mere 49 minutes. Medvedev managed to secure only 17 points throughout the match, while Berrettini became the first ATP player in 10 years to achieve a "double bagel" against a top 10 player. The Italian player's ruthless efficiency left Medvedev struggling, with the Russian failing to earn a single game point on his serve. This loss marks Medvedev's first time losing a tour-level match without winning a single game, adding to his tally of 10 sets lost 6-0 in his career. As the match progressed, Medvedev's frustration boiled over, culminating in him smashing his racket to the ground before calmly disposing of it. The former world No 1 ultimately ended the match with 28 unforced errors. Jamie Murray, speaking to Sky Sports Tennis, expressed his astonishment at the outcome, stating, "It is shocking and it shouldn't happen but it did... I'm sure he will be pretty embarrassed walking back to the locker room." Berrettini, on the other hand, described his performance as "one of the best of my life," crediting his perfect game plan and effective use of his weapons. The last time an ATP player achieved a 6-0 6-0 scoreline against a top 10 player was in 2016, when David Goffin defeated Tomas Berdych at the Rome Masters. This historic win marks only the fifth time in the Open Era that an ATP player has won 6-0 6-0 against a top 10 player.
