Well, it was a situation, very weird, and then obviously it&#8217;s tough to, like, refocus on the game, to play.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And even during the points it was very noisy, so it was tough to hear the ball, the strikes and everything.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I mean, the rule is the rule. The guy went on the court between two serves. I mean, it&#8217;s not my call to say first serve. And I think, yes, Daniil started it, and he put oil on the fire.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He went with the crowd, crazy. He went with them. Honestly, I never saw that&#8230; maybe in a football stadium, but not in tennis.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Benjamin Bonzi has described Daniil Medvedev&#8216;s attempts to rile up the US Open crowd in their first-round match&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":372103,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5311],"tags":[8558,31635,49,978,18056,659],"class_list":{"0":"post-372102","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-united-states","8":"tag-sport-section","9":"tag-tennis-section","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-us","12":"tag-us-open-tennis","13":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115088963865632332","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=372102"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372102\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/372103"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=372102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=372102"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=372102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
