Vesnina: “It’s a shame that Medvedev and Rublev weren’t able to show their best tennis at the ATP Final Tournament”
Olympic tennis champion in doubles Elena Vesnina believes that Russians Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev failed to show their best game at the ATP Final Tournament in Turin.
Medvedev and Rublev failed to make it past the group stage of the tournament. The winner of the competition was Italian Jannik Sinner.
— Danya Medvedev found himself in a very difficult group at the Final Tournament. The first match with Fritz was decisive for those who should qualify from the group in second place. The game with Fritz turned out to be unsuccessful for Dani. Not only because Medvedev was not in the best shape, but Taylor’s performance was also impressive. He did not give Dana the opportunity to return to the match. And when Danya beat De Minaur, it was very difficult against Sinner. It just didn’t work out for Medvedev, although he pulled himself together during the tournament.
I can say the same about Andrei Rublev. There are no complaints about his performance. He played at a much higher level than last year at the Finals. Andrey fought and handled the pressure much better. Rublev had a “group of death,” but the way he showed himself speaks volumes. Psychologically, Rublev is now growing up and understands how he needs to behave and feel on the court.
It’s a shame that the guys weren’t able to show their best tennis at this tournament. But at the end of the season, the strength is already running out. We hope that now the guys will rest, and next season they will please us with their victories,” Vesnina is quoted as saying by the “Championship”.
