The third racket in the Russian world Daniel Medvedev said he was interested in playing against tennis players like the Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz noting that he will have a chance to reach the final of the Wimbledon tournament if he demonstrates his maximum.
Medvedev beat American Christopher Eubanks in five matches on Wednesday and reached the Wimbledon semi-finals for the first time in his career, where he will play with world number one Alcaraz. In March, the Spaniard beat the Russian in the final of the Masters series tournament in Indian Wells (USA) – 6:3, 6:2.
— I don’t think this game will have any meaning, it was a slow and hard game. At Wimbledon, the ball bounces lower and the serve is more important. I saw a few Alcaraz matches, I watched a small match against Matteo Berrettini. We will definitely discuss tactics with the coach.
It’s interesting to play against a man like Carlos. He’s an incredible, incredible player. He is 20 years old. What he does is simply amazing. It does not stop. I don’t think he will stop. But during my career I have played with many great tennis players. I have won several times. So I will try to do my best. If I show the maximum, then I will have a chance.
What impresses you most about Carlos?
I think it’s strength. When he was 17, not too long ago, we missed him. Everyone saw that he was amazing, but everyone wondered if he could find a way to miss less while still delivering the same power. And he did it pretty quickly. That’s what’s amazing.
If you give him an easy ball, you might get in trouble. I think it’s the strongest and most effective part of his game. It’s something I should try to deal with,” Medvedev told a press conference.
