Wimbledon, England – Ninth seed Danil Medvedev is out of another grand slam in the first round after losing to 64th place Benjamin Bonji 7-6 (2), 3-6, 7-6 (3), 6-2.<\/p>\n

The 6-foot-6 Russian, the All-England Club semifinalist of the past two years, also finished the French Open in the first round. And that followed a second round loss at the Australian Open.<\/p>\n

“At the moment, I’m not that worried,” said Medvedev, who ranks 9th.<\/p>\n

It was in 2017 that Medvedev lost his last first round match of consecutive Grand Slams – his major tournament debut at Melbourne Park, followed by Roland Garros.<\/p>\n

Medvedev lost to Paris’ Cameron Norry in five sets this year. In 2023, the Russians finished second in Roland Garos, losing in the first round.<\/p>\n

The 2021 US Open Champion removed the frustration with his racket and slammed it to the ground after Boni made him better in the third set.<\/p>\n

“I was surprised by his level,” Medvedev said of Bonji, who hadn’t won a match in Grass for three years. “… There wasn’t much I could do better. Every shot I played today, even the good shots, he had the answer. Today he barely missed it. When you’re on fire, everything goes in.<\/p>\n

“No matter what I did in court, it didn’t bother him much. Everything he did was tough for me to play. I fought. I tried.”<\/p>\n
