Russian 20-year-old Daniil Medvedev was immediately disqualified from the Savannah Challenger United States Tennis Association (USTA) event on Thursday, after he “questioned the impartiality of the umpire, based on her race.”
During his second-round match against American Donald Young, Medvedev lost the match instantly when handed an unsportsmanlike conduct default for appearing to say something to chair umpire Sandy French.
The crowd had no idea what had just happened. “Unsportsmanlike conduct. Default Medvedev,” French told the crowd through her chair umpire microphone. “Game. Set. Match. Young. 4-1. Default.”
Medvedev then shook hands with Young and French and it was bizarrely all over. Cont. (Video)
