Former Soviet tennis player Anna Dmitrieva called Daniel Medvedev one of the Serbian’s main rivals Novak Djokovic in the fight for the 2024 Australian Open trophy.
— Medvedev, Alcaraz and Sinner can compete with Djokovic at the Australian Open. Maybe also Rune. Young tennis players are in no way inferior to Novak, and in some areas, perhaps even superior to him. They showed it last year. Djokovic is by far the most experienced, the most confident.
If Medvedev decided not to play before the Grand Slam tournament, then he had a reason for it. Some other favorites didn’t play either. It’s a long way, it’s important to go through the first rounds, and then everything should work out,” Dmitrieva said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
The draw for the main draw of the first Grand Slam tournament of the season took place on Thursday in Melbourne. Third-seeded Russian Daniil Medvedev will play with the winner of the qualifier at the start of the Australian Open, Karen Khachanov’s opponent (15th seed) will be German Daniel Altmaier, Roman Safiullin will compete with the Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor (28) , Alexander Shevchenko will compete with the Spaniard Jaume Munyar, Pavel Kotov – with the Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech.
Australian Open main draw matches begin on January 14.
