Athletistic/Tennis. President of the Russian Tennis Federation (RFF) Shamil Tarpishchev believes that Russian tennis players Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev are real contenders for the playoffs of the 2023 ATP Finals tournament. However, he is not satisfied with the result of the draw.
“It’s a shame that Medvedev and Rublev find themselves in the same group. I think it’s a bad situation; it would be better if they were in different quartets. In terms of play, Andrei and Danya are real contenders to participate in the semi-finals, their group obviously being stronger than the one where Djokovic is clearly the favorite.
Let’s see what Alcaraz will look like in Turin, his condition is now a mystery. Much will depend on the outcome of the Spaniard’s match against Zverev. Rublev is well prepared, he is now dedicated to work, which makes me happy. Of course, we hope that both Russian tennis players will reach the semi-finals,” Tarpishchev said, as quoted by Match TV.
The final of the 2023 ATP tournament will take place in Turin (Italy) from November 12 to 19. The winner of the competition can win around $4.8 million. The current champion of the tournament is world number one, Serbian Novak Djokovic.
