Medvedev's U.S. Open Meltdown Sparks Chaos and Fines
TL;DR
Daniil Medvedev falsely claimed that U.S. Open umpire Greg Allensworth was biased due to his pay structure, but in reality, Allensworth is a salaried ATP employee, and umpires are generally paid a flat rate per day, not by the match or hour. Medvedev's accusations of bias are unfounded, and the pay structure does not incentivize match length.
