Russia’s tennis star
Daniil Medvedev hilariously pick
pockets Italy’s
Jannik Sinner during the China Open ceremony.
The 27-year-old came second-best in the final of the event
in straight sets with a score of 7-6, 7-6.
That, however, was not enough to stop the current world number
three from pickpockets Sinner during the ceremony in a hilarious moment.
The result will definitely hurt Medvedev as it was his
second consecutive final defeat in the space of just three weeks.
Previously, the Moscow-born also lost the final of the US
Open to the current world number one Serbia’s Novak Djokovic in straight sets with
a score of 6-3, 7-6, 6-3.
On the other hand, victory will be a sigh of relief for Sinner,
who, despite having all the talent in the world, has not been able to showcase
his talent at the highest level.
The current world number four, who is often regarded as one
of the best young talent around in the men’s circuit, participated in the main
draw of all the Grand Slams this year.
However, he managed to qualify in the quarterfinal or beyond
in just one of those events which was Wimbledon where he lost to Djokovic in straight
sets with a score of 6-3, 6-4, 7-6.
