1995 Davis Cup runner-up, Soviet-Russian tennis player Andrey Chesnokov believes Roland Garros got ‘impoverished’ after relegation Daniel Medvedev of the tournament in the first round.
Medvedev lost to Brazilian Seibut Tyagu. 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.
— I have no comments for this match. It’s just a joke. This Brazilian is only a one-game player: he lost against the 200th, 300th, 800th players in the world this year. How can you make three doubles in one game? ! Medvedev just pulled the second set out of his ass. Wild just gave Medvedev a gift at the second set set point. He had to make the score 2-0 in sets.
Medvedev stood very far from the back line and the Brazilian stood on the pitch. Moreover, Medvedev played short, always giving the opportunity to attack. To me, it was disgusting. No initiatives.
But it’s a huge loss for Roland Garros – the second player in the world is eliminated in the first round. How much could you lose your serve? ! Is it normal to lose your service 12 times against the 172nd player in the world? ! What kind of comments can there be?! In this match, Medvedev made three times more errors than in the entire tournament in Rome.
It shouldn’t be. He showed such phenomenal tennis in Rome – and such shit at Roland Garros… He was shaking the whole match. Some people crave sensations. But then Medvedev lost in the first round – the tournament just got poorer. Moreover, this Brazilian will not play on the center court, but on the “ass court”, where not a single person will come. I think Medvedev himself understands everything,” Chesnokov told the “Championship”.
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.
