Daniil Medvedev sealed victory in straight sets over Holger Rune 7-5, 6-4 at Indian Wells, but it was anything but smooth sailing both for the Russian on the court and also in the needle between the pair.
Tensions boiled over as a result between the pair at the net after the second set as in the first point of his opening service game itself, the Dane seemed to directly aim his shot at Daniil Medvedev. While he quickly apologized for his move, his opponent seemingly failed to notice the gesture.
Medvedev then stared Rune down and followed it with an “I see you” gesture. Rune did not appreciate the signaling and informed about his apology to chair umpire Carlos Bernardes. He agreed with the Dane.
"I didn't do anything!" Rune said. "If you wanted to talk about this in the [locker room], I didn’t hear you say sorry," Medvedev said after the match
"There’s no reason to talk about it. There’s just no reason to talk about it," Rune said. "Sorry, man," Medvedev said in response.
