President of the Russian Tennis Federation Shamil Tarpishchev said he does not consider the Spaniard leaving Rafael Nadal with the sensational Australian Open.
Nadal lost to the American mackenzie macdonald who takes 65th place in the ATP rankings in the second round of the Australian Open – 4:6, 4:6, 5:7.
I wouldn’t call it a sensational defeat. Nadal has only won two games this year. Rafa is covered with injuries – the game did not match his level. There are no surprises. His balance is clearly negative.
Initially, he said Medvedev’s net wasn’t bad because Nadal isn’t the same anymore. Now it all depends on Medvedev,” Tarpishchev told the “Championship”.
Nadal won the Australian Open in 2022. In the 2023 tournament, he was seeded under number one.
