Selivanenko appreciated Medvedev’s prospects at the tournament in Miami

Alexei Selivanenko, Vice President of the Russian Tennis Federation, member of the ITF Board of Directors, believes that the performance of Russian tennis player Daniil Medvedev at the tournament in Miami will depend on whether he manages to maintain his strong form.

– The concepts of “easy” and “complex” mesh exist only on paper. In the current round of the ATP, any tennis player can beat anyone. Therefore, everything depends only on Medvedev himself. On whether he will be able to maintain the shape and freshness that he has shown over the past few weeks.

Regarding the fact that Daniil did not play in the third round match due to the refusal of the opponent, this does not matter. This is just one small factor. And in modern tennis, success in a match depends on a combination of many of these components. And it’s pointless to try to figure out to what extent each of them affects the result,” Selivanenko told Vprognoze.ru.

Medvedev advanced to the fourth round of the tournament in Miami ahead of schedule, as his rival Slovak Alex Molchan withdrew from the tournament due to a right thigh injury. Next, the Russian will play with the winner of the match between Frenchman Kenten Ghali and American Mackenzie McDonald.
