A former ATP player was left \u201cspeechless\u201d after Daniil Medvedev was whitewashed in an astonishingly one-sided loss to Matteo Berrettini at the 2026 Monte Carlo Masters.<\/p>\n
Berrettini, the world No 90, destroyed 10th-ranked Medvedev 6-0, 6-0 in just 49 minutes in the second round of the clay-court Masters 1000 tournament.<\/p>\n
The 29-year-old Italian, who has been ranked as high as sixth, won 50 of the 67 points played in the match.<\/p>\n
The 2021 Wimbledon finalist is the fifth player to \u2018double bagel\u2019 (win 6-0, 6-0) a player in the top 10 of the ATP Rankings.<\/p>\n
Medvedev<\/a>, a former world No 1 and US Open champion, did not even get to deuce on his own serve as he hit just three winners and committed 27 unforced errors in an abject display.<\/p>\n After losing serve in the second game of the second set, Medvedev\u2019s frustration boiled over as he obliterated his racket.<\/p>\n A Daniil Medvedev tennis racket smash for the ages \ud83d\ude32 pic.twitter.com\/IWBz8Iu9gx<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Sky Sports Tennis (@SkySportsTennis) April 8, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n It is the first time Medvedev has lost a match without winning a single game in his ATP Tour career.<\/p>\n Barcelona Open Entry List, Prize Money, Points: Carlos Alcaraz headlines as 4 top 7 players star<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Stefanos Tsitsipas needs \u2018serious soul-searching\u2019 after \u2018disastrous\u2019 Monte Carlo Masters display<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Want more from Tennis365?

A bit speechless here,\u201d said the Luxembourger.<\/p>\n Muller went on to add: \u201cI\u2019m sure he (Berrettini) doesn\u2019t mind. He\u2019s happy with the win like this. Probably even gonna book the practice court to get some more hitting done.<\/p>\n \u201cTough to speak about the numbers here. 5.7 the performance rating [for Medvedev], I think that says it all. It shouldn\u2019t take anything away from Berrettini, who was very solid, who was very focused, who did the job.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was quite a shocking performance there from Daniil Medvedev. He just got nothing going. Nothing working. It was one of those days.\u201d<\/p>\n Berrettini reacted to his staggering win in his interview with Tennis TV.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it was definitely one of the best performances of my life. I think I missed three shots in the whole match, and it\u2019s not easy, especially with a tricky player like Daniil,\u201d said Berrettini.<\/p>\n \u201cI think the gameplan was perfect and my weapons were working pretty well. I risked a little bit in the first game facing two break points. After that, I felt I was playing better than him. I wouldn\u2019t expect to win like that, it doesn\u2019t happen that often.<\/p>\n \u201cBut at the same time, I kept my focus because I know one break, two breaks, it\u2019s not enough sometimes, so I kept pushing and I got the win.\u201d<\/p>\n READ NEXT: Carlos Alcaraz reveals what he \u2018regrets\u2019 saying ahead of Monte Carlo Masters title defence<\/a> The post WATCH: Daniil Medvedev obliterates his racket in astonishing 49-minute Monte Carlo Masters loss<\/a> appeared first on Tennis365<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A former ATP player was left \u201cspeechless\u201d after Daniil Medvedev was whitewashed in an astonishingly one-sided loss to Matteo Berrettini at the 2026 Monte Carlo Masters.
