At Wimbledon in 2017, Medvedev was fined after emptying his wallet and throwing coins at umpire Mariana Alves following a five-set loss to Belgium's Ruben Bemelmans. He disputed a series of controversial calls and said after the match "it was very hot out there" and couldn't remember if he'd asked for Alves' removal.

Daniil Medvedev has been fined $42,500 by the U.S. Open for his meltdown during a first-round loss after a photographer wandered onto the court during the match.
