In a shocking turn of events at the China Open, Daniil Medvedev was disqualified from his semifinal match against Novak Djokovic after hitting a spectator with a ball. The incident occurred when Medvedev, frustrated, struck the ball into the stands, unintentionally hitting a fan. The default was enforced immediately, allowing Djokovic to advance to the final without finishing the match. Medvedev's disqualification adds to the drama of the tournament, especially after he recently secured his third title of the season. Djokovic is now set to compete against Alex de Minaur in the final, seeking his first title of the year.
