In a memorable final, the Spaniard prevails to win his 21st Grand Slam title. The final against Medvedev turns into a marathon match – with a comeback for the history books.
A protest caused a brief interruption in the Australian Open final between tennis pros Daniil Medvedev and Rafael Nadal on Sunday.
While the second set of the final in Melbourne was in progress and Medvedev had just had a break chance, a person got inside the Rod Laver Arena and suddenly stood on the court.
A banner read “Abolish the internment of refugees”. Security forces immediately screened the finalists and arrested the person. The final match continued afterwards.
