Daniil Medvedev suffered a humiliating 6-0 6-0 defeat to Matteo Berrettini in just 49 minutes at the Monte-Carlo Masters. The former world No. 1 won only 17 points as Berrettini became the first ATP player in a decade to defeat a top 10 opponent without losing a single game. Wild card Berrettini was ruthlessly efficient, with Medvedev failing to earn a single game point on his serve.

This marked the first time Medvedev lost a tour-level match without winning a game, adding to his career total of 10 sets lost 6-0. The Italian was near-perfect, missing just three shots in the entire match while Medvedev committed 28 unforced errors. After falling 6-0 2-0 down, an exasperated Medvedev smashed his racket in frustration before calmly discarding it.

Former Grand Slam doubles champion Jamie Murray called the result "shocking" and suggested Medvedev would be "pretty embarrassed" in the locker room. Berrettini, the 2021 Wimbledon finalist, described it as "one of the best performances of my life," crediting his perfect game plan and execution. The defeat raises questions about Medvedev's form on clay after his recent Indian Wells final appearance, particularly given his 2017 Rome Masters title proves he can excel on the surface.
