McEnroe expresses deep concern for Medvedev after first-round defeat in US Open 2025: ‘I think he’s so lost right now’

Tennis legend John McEnroe weighed in on the worrisome decline of Daniil Medvedev and advised him to ‘get his act together’. Medvedev lost in the round of three of four Grand Slam tournaments in 2025.

Tennis legend John McEnroe had a harsh take on Daniil Medvedev following his dramatic round 1 defeat against Benjamin Bonzi at the US Open 2025. Weighing in on the situation of the Russian, McEnroe is not convinced that Medvedev will be able to recover from his current struggles.

Medvedev’s horrendous 2025 Grand Slam campaign ended as the Flushing Meadows could not bring much joy for him either. The 29-year-old exited in the round 1 stage of the last three Grand Slam tournaments, and his rapid decline has left many fans and experts concerned about his future.

Besides the US Open loss, his demeanour following the defeat made more headlines. Medvedev was exasperated after he could not give his comeback from two sets and a match point down the ideal ending. He lost in five sets and, following that, went on a racquet-smashing spree.

McEnroe expresses deep concern for Medvedev

Winner of seven Grand Slam titles, John McEnroe has spoken about Medvedev’s match and echoed the same sentiment as many of the fans and experts alike.

“You know, he already has tapped out, like months ago,” McEnroe said during the Nothing Major Show. “I’ve been worried about his level because he doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing at this point for a guy that good on hard courts.”

The American paid heed to Medvedev’s angry meltdown following the loss to Bonzi as a sign that deeper issues are plaguing Medvedev’s game. “This sort of cemented it, like how little confidence he has in anything,” McEnroe continued, while praising Bonzi’s composure under pressure.

As a stalwart of the game, McEnroe shared valuable advice for Medvedev, but also voiced his doubts about the player.

“He’s got to get his act together. I’m not sure he can. I think he’s so lost right now,” he admitted, adding that he’d actually been hoping for a Medvedev victory during the match.

McEnroe finally concluded by stating that, “There’s something about the US Open that brings out the best and worst of him.”
