At one point, reporters asked him what he was thinking when he was on the verge of relegation, and he replied that he was thinking about what Novak would do.
I don’t know if people will like it, but I was thinking about what Novak would do in such a situation. He is one of the greatest champions – the Russian answered, followed by the whistles of the fans.
Medvedev continued, which changed the mood of the fans in the stands.
“Or Rafa and Roger, too. “They won many matches in this way,” Danil added.
He is one of the few players who supported Novak Djokovic in the fight with the Australian authorities, for the appearance at the first Grand Slam of the season, and it resulted in the deportation of the best tennis player in the world.
