Andrei Olkhovsky, two-time winner of Grand Slam doubles tournaments, does not consider the Russian tennis player’s performance to be an exceptional feat Alexandra Shevchenko at the tournament final in Metz, France.
On Friday, 22-year-old Shevchenko defeated French representative Pierre-Hugues Herbert in the semifinals in straight sets – 6:4, 6:4. The native of Rostov-on-Don reached the final of the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) tournament for the first time in his career.
— Yes, Shevchenko’s performance in the semi-final was successful. He’s fit now and showing dignity – he beat Khachanov, he beat Erbert. Time will tell how promising it is. The ATP Finals is of course a good result, but so far I don’t see anything outstanding and I don’t think we can talk about the top ten, ”quotes RT Olkhovsky.
Shevchenko’s opponent in the final of the Metz tournament will be Frenchman Hugo Amber.
