ATP World No. 1 Daniil Medvedev raised many eyebrows on Sunday as he chose to ignore the Wimbledon final and watch the Formula 1 Austrian Grand Prix, which was on at the same time. The Russian player was not allowed to participate in the 2022 Wimbledon Championships as a result of a participation ban on Russian and Belarusian players.Medvedev posted a short video on social media with the caption reading, "Perfect Sunday," as he watched the Austrian GP on television with his trophy cabinet in the backdrop, which included his US Open trophy among many others.Medvedev's update drew many reactions from tennis fans on social media. Many believed it was no coincidence that the Russian player posted the video at the same time as the Wimbledon final between Novak Djokovic and Nick Kyrgios, appreciating his 'sense of humor.'"Hahaha this is also me pretending the Wimbledon men's final doesn't exist," one fan wrote on Twitter.Dane Luna 📙 Misunderstanding Mr. Popular out now!@authordanelunaHahaha this is also me pretending the Wimbledon men's final doesn't exist twitter.com/AnnaK_4ever/st…Oleg S.@AnnaK_4everMeanwhile, World No. 1 during Wimbledon final:2340Meanwhile, World No. 1 during Wimbledon final: https://t.co/rHIv8H18EPHahaha this is also me pretending the Wimbledon men's final doesn't exist 😂 twitter.com/AnnaK_4ever/st…Molly McElwee@molly_mcelweeSomeone in the Centre Court crowd just shouted, "Where is Medvedev?"The answer: twitter.com/gasparlanca/st…Gaspar Ribeiro Lança@gasparlancaMeanwhile on Instagram...
