The defeat of the second racket in the world Daniil Medvedev of Brazilian Seibut Tyago in the first round of Roland-Garros does not cause emotions other than regret, Vladimir Kamelzon, the honored tennis coach of Russia, 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 at Roland Garros.
There are only regrets. He was still fit before this tournament, showed he could play on clay. Moreover, I think he is now one of the three best players in the world. And here is such an embarrassing defeat. But tennis is a sport where anything can happen.
I can only regret. Still, I previously assumed he could win Roland Garros, given the form he approached it in. But tennis is also loved for surprises. It is a surprise.
Daniil’s defeat is a disgrace not only for us, but also for all his fans and the Russian Tennis Federation. We appreciate each of our players playing today, despite the absence of a flag and an anthem. Therefore, Medvedev’s loss makes me very sad, Kamelzon told .
Earlier in May, the second racket in the world, Medvedev, for the first time in his career, became the winner of the Rome clay-court Masters.
