Brazilian Seibut Tyagou in the Roland Garros first round match against the second racket in the world Daniel Medvedev showed, perhaps, the best match of his career, Alexei Selivanenko, vice-president of the Russian Tennis Federation, told .
The match lasted 4 hours and 15 minutes and ended with the score of 7:6 (7:5), 6:7 (6:8), 2:6, 6:3, 6:4 in favor of the 172nd racquet in the world, who qualified for the main draw.
– Tennis is interesting because it always has a place for unexpected results. The favorite does not always succeed. Today Tiago had probably the best match of his career and won a five-set duel against one of the leader of the ranking. Yes, this result is unexpected. However, in tennis, at each tournament, it happens that one of the best players is defeated.
Congratulations to the Brazilian. He showed the game that allowed him to beat one of the best in the world. But it sometimes happens with the leaders of the world ranking. At almost every major tournament we see similar cases. Everyone loses sometimes, nobody wins every game in a row, Selivanenko told .
