Ignacio Buse defeats Daniil Medvedev at Paris Masters

Peruvian tennis player Ignacio Buse secured a historic victory at the Rolex Paris Masters, defeating world number five Daniil Medvedev in the second round with a score of 6-4, 6-4. The 22-year-old Buse became the first Peruvian to win a match in the main draw of this Masters 1000 tournament and the first to defeat a top-10 player since Luis Horna in 2008.

The match was marked by tension, as Medvedev received a code violation for unsportsmanlike conduct after scraping his racket on the court. Following the loss, Medvedev expressed frustration regarding court conditions and physical fatigue, noting a lack of desire to continue playing the remainder of the season despite qualifying for the ATP Finals in Turin.

Buse’s run in Paris concluded in the round of 16, where he was defeated by Portugal’s Nuno Borges in straight sets, 6-0, 6-2.
