Winner of three Grand Slam tournaments in doubles Elena Vesnina commented on the results of the Roland Garros draw for the Russian Daniel Medvedev and also assessed his chances of success in Paris.
The second racket in the world Daniil Medvedev will meet the winner of the qualification or the tennis player who will enter the main draw as the lucky loser.
– Of course, Medvedev was lucky with the draw. It was important for Dani to go into the half without (Spanish world No. 1 Carlos) Alcaraz and (Serbian Novak) Djokovic – and it happened. This should relieve him of the burden of responsibility. But that doesn’t mean the first games will be easy. The early stages are the most important in the tournament. You have to start with confidence. The main thing is that in the first round he does not get (Russian Aslan) Karatsev, who completes the qualifying course.
I hope that in the first two or three matches, Medvedev will feel French soil and that everything will go well. Of course, he has a chance to win Roland Garros this year. He already surprised everyone at the Rome Masters, so why not aim for something more? I consider Danya one of the big favorites for the next Grand Slam. Probably, first Djokovic and Alcaraz will claim the title, then Medvedev, – quotes the words of Vesnina “Championship”.
The main draw matches at Roland-Garros will begin on May 28.
