Joao Fonseca spoke with the Brazilian outlet TennisNews after his early elimination at the ATP Masters 1000 Rome 2026 and wanted to send a message to his own fans, following the scandal that occurred in his match against Hamad Medjedovic, with reprehensible behavior from many of them and constant interruptions. "There were too many breaks. I won't say that was the reason for the defeat, but the audience influences the matches. They not only harm my opponent but also me. Sometimes they think it's a football match. I love to have their support, but there has to be a limit," he commented before showing positivity despite the loss. "This is an opportunity to keep learning and evolving. I must keep my head up and work hard," he concluded.
