The fifth racket of the world Daniil Medvedev was awarded a technical defeat in the semifinals of the tournament of the Association of tennis professionals (ATP) category 500 in Beijing for hitting the ball at the fan. The victory was won by Novak Djokovic, who occupies 11th place in the world ranking.

With the score of 7:5, 5:3 in favor of the Serb, Medvedev hit the ball with a racket after the draw. A shell flew into the eye of a fan on the stands. The audience needed medical attention.

For the title Novak Djokovic will compete with Australian tennis player Alex de Minaur. The Serb reached the final for the second time this season: in January he lost to Spaniard Carlos Alcaras in the decisive match of the Australian Open.

The final will be held on October 6. The total prize fund of the tournament exceeds $4 million.
