Daniil Medvedev has been disqualified from the China Open in an outcome described as unsurprising, given the Russian player’s history of showing intense emotions during matches.
The incident has renewed attention on the contrast between Medvedev’s temperament away from competition and his conduct on court. He has previously said that it would take repeated efforts to make him angry in everyday life, including knocking on his hotel door at 6am for seven consecutive days.
The available details do not specify the circumstances that led to the disqualification or set out any further response from Medvedev. The latest confirmed position is that his China Open campaign ended with the disqualification.
