Daniil Medvedev reached the final at the 2019 US Open and along the way the Russian had a really interesting interaction with the American crowd.
The American crowd enjoyed booing Medvedev in a playful way and the Russian happily played the part of the villain. He taunted the crowd after every won point and it was a very entertaining watch for neutral spectators. Medvedev took it even further during a post-match interview where he trolled the crowd.
Asked by the reporter how he felt, Medvedev responded:
"First of all, what I can say. Thank you all guys. Because you're energy tonight give me the win. Because if you were not here I would probably lose the match. I was so tired, I was cramping yesterday, it was tough for me to play. So I want all of you to know, when you're sleeping tonight I won because of you."
All the while Medvedev was talking he could not keep a grin off his face as the crowd continued boing. Then he proceeded to taunt the booing crowd gesturing he was absorbing their 'energy' and asking for more.

- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
