Saturday, 29 January 2022 at 09:49

Daniil Medvedev is currently facing Stefanos Tsitsipas for a spot in the final at the 2022 Australian Open but the World No.2 is far from happy.

Medvedev was claiming that Tsitsipas was being coached by his father from his box and was talking on every point reiterating this constantly after receiving a visible obscenity code violation.

“Are you mad? Are you mad? For what? His father can coach every point? Are you stupid? His father can talk every point? His father can talk every point? His father can talk every point? His father can talk every point? Repeat answer to my question. Will you answer my question. Will you answer my question? Can you answer my question? Can you answer my question, please? Can his father talk every point?," said Medvedev to the chair umpire.

He then called the umpire a "small cat" to conclude the outburst.
