Sunday was a special date for almost any tennis enthusiast as Novak Djokovic beat Nick Kyrgios in four sets to win his fourth straight Wimbledon title.
That is unless you're Daniil Medvedev, however, as the restricted Russian made a point of ignoring Sunday's decider in favour of the Austrian Grand Prix. Despite being ranked No. 1 in the world, Moscow-born Medvedev was prevented from taking part in this year's draw after the All England Club banned all Russian and Belarusian players.
The ATP condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine in May but branded the decision to suspend Russian and Belarusian players from the grass-court season "unfair." In response, both the ATP and WTA stripped the London major of all rankings points, which has affected finalists Kyrgios and Djokovic, as well as others who exited the draw earlier.
