Davis Cup 1995 finalist Andrei Chesnokov told RB Sport that only a surprise could prevent Russian Daniil Medvedev from beating world No. 140 Australian John Millman in the second round of the Australian Open.
Millman is playing well in Australia. In front of the Australian public, he will try to show his best. But Medvedev takes it very well, dribbles very well. What can prevent Daniel from winning here? There should be only some kind of surprise, a problem in the body. Medvedev’s class is much higher. He is sharper on the court, his shots are better. I don’t think Medvedev can lose. But then there will be a definitely difficult match against Korda in the third round,” Chesnokov said.
The second round match between Medvedev and Millman will take place on January 18.
