I dont know what happened, all I know is that Paris has by far the most despicable disgusting ugly human beings in the crowd in tennis. Nothing comes even close and I watched the 2015 USO final.

These people need to be thrown out of the crowd without refunds and get a permaban from all sporting events for life. Effing hate the Paris crowds, just hate them. The most disrepectful human beings on this planet, booing every single fart like a bunch of animals for no reason.

Im with Medvedev here by default. He isn't the first player who has a beef with them. Remember Sharapova back in 2008 or 2009?

Med tried, he lost in 2 tiebreaks. If they booed, they must really hate their countrymen, all of whom exhibited zero mental fortitude.

Medvedev is entertaining as hell but I agree with @Kralingen that his behavior is atrocious, and for some reason he seems to get a free pass from the tennis media and commentators. Tsitsipas is an annoying person but Medvedev truly comes across as a bully.

Meddy is another weird man/child tennis pro. Playing video games all day and flipping off the paying customers.
His child will be so proud of daddy and his wife is always beaming with pride. He is not a man.

NBA superstar Luka Doncic and F1 champion Max Versteppen also play video games all day long. Seems to me that's not a sure way to judge a guy.

FWIW I saw him just a couple of months ago sign autographs for many kids at the USO after he left the practice court. Many other players refuse to sign or ignore the kids. Martina Navratilova infamously refused to give a young Jennifer Capriati an autograph which backfired as Jen defeated the older veteran in Wimbledon. Meddy did make one specific young girl so happy as she ran with her large tennis ball. The man is like most humans which means having both good and bad qualities within them. Meddy does have to control his emotions better in the court, but he certainly isn't the worst example of on-court behavior.

Blames it on 'looking at my nail' while he sarcastically hails 'beautiful Parisien audience'​

article link, focus on the sport nothing else.
  • Daniil Medvedev was defeated 6-3 6-7 7-6 by Bulgarian star Grigor Dimitrov
  • The Russian was given a hostile reception by the crowd and reacted after losing
  • He appeared to give the Paris spectators the middle finger as he left the court

He should just blow them off. Medvedev is in the year ending final anyway, just get some rest and get ready for that which he has great chance of winning with all the top guys tired

What do you mean? (Sincerely asking / curious - not trolling)
In the 80's french crowd was a synonym for culture, now majority are young, disrespectful, soft rappers wanna be who are booing players all the time. Luckily in the last 18 years the big three won it all and gave a little prestige to French Open.
