Former ninth racket of the world Andrey Chesnokov commented on the defeat of Daniil Medvedev from Serb Novak Djokovic in the semifinals of the tournament in Adelaide (Australia).
The meeting took place on Saturday and ended with the score 6:3, 6:4 in favor of the Serb.
– Djokovic moves great on the court, holds the back line well. When serving the ball, he makes such a direction that Dana has to take 5-6 steps to fight back. Due to this, Novak won a lot. The Serb took the initiative from the very first serve.
It cannot be said that the semi-final was without a chance for Medvedev. Djokovic deservedly won. Maybe Daniel had chances, but they disappeared very quickly.
It should be noted that now Medvedev is in optimal shape and can play well at the Australian Open, – Sport24 quotes Chesnokov.
The 2023 Australian Open will take place from 16 to 29 January in Melbourne.
