Daniil Medvedev was very close to being disqualified in his match at the Laver Cup 2024 against Ben Shelton. After losing an important point in the tiebreak, the Russian threw his racket, which bounced on the ground and almost reached the first row of spectators. John McEnroe called for the disqualification, as did Shelton himself. Kokkinakis also spoke to the tournament microphones and commented that the Russian should no longer be on the court, while Zverev defended his teammate.

This is an automatic translation. You can read the original news, Medvedev pudo haber sido descalificado por una peligrosa acción tirando su raqueta
