After his crushing 6-4 6-3 loss to the American Taylor FritzDaniil Medvedev answered the press. The Russian player admitted he was tired and looking forward to the end of the season. The 28-year-old also complained about the poor quality of balls on the circuit in recent years: “With the balls we’re playing with, anyone can do this. It’s no surprise. It’s been like that for two or three years. Every training session is complicated, every match is complicated. I hung in there for a long time, but now I don’t feel any pleasure on the court. So, no, I’m not surprised by the result of the match.“he told l’Equipe.

Medvedev will play Alex de Minaur on Tuesday and Jannik Sinner on Thursday for his final group match.
