A bit speechless here,\u201d said the Luxembourger.<\/p>\n<p>Muller went on to add: \u201cI\u2019m sure he (Berrettini) doesn\u2019t mind. He\u2019s happy with the win like this. Probably even gonna book the practice court to get some more hitting done.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTough to speak about the numbers here. 5.7 the performance rating [for Medvedev], I think that says it all. It shouldn\u2019t take anything away from Berrettini, who was very solid, who was very focused, who did the job.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was quite a shocking performance there from Daniil Medvedev. He just got nothing going. Nothing working. It was one of those days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Berrettini reacted to his staggering win in his interview with Tennis TV.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it was definitely one of the best performances of my life. I think I missed three shots in the whole match, and it\u2019s not easy, especially with a tricky player like Daniil,\u201d said Berrettini.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the gameplan was perfect and my weapons were working pretty well. I risked a little bit in the first game facing two break points. After that, I felt I was playing better than him. I wouldn\u2019t expect to win like that, it doesn\u2019t happen that often.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut at the same time, I kept my focus because I know one break, two breaks, it\u2019s not enough sometimes, so I kept pushing and I got the win.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/carlos-alcaraz-regrets-comments-to-his-team-monte-carlo-masters\">Carlos Alcaraz reveals what he \u2018regrets\u2019 saying ahead of Monte Carlo Masters title defence<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End --><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WATCH: Daniil Medvedev obliterates his racket in astonishing 49-minute Monte Carlo Masters loss Ewan West 08 Apr 2026 12:00 PM Daniil Medvedev with Matteo Berrettini inset A former ATP player was left \u201cspeechless\u201d after Daniil Medvedev was whitewashed in an astonishingly one-sided loss to Matteo Berrettini at the 2026 Monte Carlo Masters.
