Chesnokov called Alcaras the favorite in the match with Medvedev in the semi-final of Wimbledon
Soviet and Russian tennis player Andrey Chesnokov said that he considers Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz the favorite in the upcoming semifinal match with Russian Daniil Medvedev at the Wimbledon tournament.
— Medvedev played Alcaraz in Indian Wells. There was no chance at all: Daniil serves the first serve, and the Spaniard just backhanded on nines. Now Alcaraz liberated and suffered. He had a very good match against Rune. Alcaraz is by far the favorite.
If Danya plays with Carlos, as in Indian Wells, then Alcaraz is definitely the favorite. But anything is possible. Everyone names one favorite, and the other wins. Everyone said that Djokovic would beat Wawrinka in the Roland Garros final, but in the end, Wawrinka won in four sets. Nobody expected this. Let’s hope that Danya will show us something fantastic. But Alcaraz does everything: he shortens, and goes to the net, and gives cut, and twisted, – Chesnokov told the “Championship”.
The match between Medvedev and Alcaraz will take place on July 14, starting at 17:30 (Moscow time).
