Daniil Medvedev found out the hard way that there’s nothing more humbling than air travel.
The tennis star made a public plea to United Airlines after he said it misplaced all of his bags en route to this week’s Miami Open.
“Hi@united…need a little help,” he wrote on X on Tuesday. “Flew from PSP to Florida yesterday and none of my bags arrived. Kind of need them to play in the @MiamiOpen….can you help?” he added, along with a winking emoji.
It didn’t take long for the ATP World No. 10 to receive a response, though he didn’t seem too satisfied.
It was a more generic answer from United, which addressed the case like any middle-of-the-road lost luggage claim, prompting some humorous replies from Medvedev and his followers alike.
“The amount of AI help has been overwhelming,” Medvedev responded with a facepalm and shrugging emojis.
“He’s one of the top tennis players on the planet. This will be a very bad look for you folks if you cannot get him his bags. And Dave Carroll may write and record another song about you too,” another user commented, alluding to the Canadian singer’s viral protest song, “United Breaks Guitars.”
Quipped one more: “I actually appreciate he was treated as sh-ttily as the rest of us.”
It was a chucklesome “reality check” for Medvedev, who had just handed World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz his first loss of the year on his way to the Indian Wells final.
Medvedev ultimately fell short against No. 2-ranked Italian phenom Jannik Sinner on Sunday.
Perhaps United enforces a strict, “If you’re not first, you’re last” policy.
