Former ninth racket in the world Andrey Chesnokov commented on “” about the defeat of the Russian Daniel Medvedev from Sebastien Korda in the third round of the Australian Open, noting the stunning play of the American.
The match ended with the score 7:6 (9:7), 6:3, 7:6 (7:4) in favor of Korda.
– Before the match, I thought that both tennis players had a 50 to 50 chance to win. By the way, Korda played the last match against Djokovic [в финале турнира в Аделаиде], it was obvious to me that for Medvedev it would be a very difficult fight. Therefore, I felt that it would be easier for the player who wins this match to play the 1/8 finals. For me, it’s not a sensation, maybe it’s a surprise for everyone, but not for me. It was during this meeting that Korda was stronger, better psychologically and resented the court so much that Medvedev could not cope with it.
Korda played simply amazing. In this state, you can win all tournaments. Looking at how he plays, Korda is one of the title contenders, Chesnokov told .
In the next round, Korda will face Pole Hubert Hurkacz.
