Russian tennis player Daniel Medvedev failed to fully recover from his loss in the last Australian Open match against the Spaniard Rafael Nadal says American John McEnroe, seven-time Grand Slam winner.
In January last year, Medvedev lost to Nadal in the decisive Australian Open match with the score of 6:2, 7:6 (7:5), 4:6, 4:6, 5 :7.
– Zverev was injured for a long time. It will be interesting to see how it performs. Meanwhile, Medvedev never recovered from his loss to Nadal in which he led 2-0 in sets. Daniel has to find a whole new approach: he was number one at the start of the year, and now he’s slipped to seventh place. It’s a very big fall for someone who almost won the Australian Open.
Such a defeat can sometimes really be remembered. I lost to Ivan Lendl at Roland-Garros in 1984 and only now it’s over! I feel like Daniel is still struggling; when you have such an advantage and victory is right in front of you, it’s not easy to stay focused. I was lucky enough to win Wimbledon shortly after losing to Lendl, it eased the pain, but it’s something you can’t forget. However, there is a lesson to be learned from this. He has enough experience to use the Australian Open final as an engine of growth, — quotes the words of McEnroe Eurosport .
The Australian Open 2023 will take place from January 16-29.
