Athletistic/Tennis. Russian tennis player Daniil Medvedev has responded to a question asking if he thinks he has been left out of the favorites at the 2024 Australian Open.

– They always talk about Djokovic as their favorite. Alcaraz and Sinner are also mentioned this year. Do you feel like you’re a little unclear?

– I do not think about it. I think last year we managed to get a little ahead, especially in points. If we only look at Grand Slam tournaments, everyone can go far. I’m happy to be in this group because now they are all playing incredible tennis.

I know what I’m worth. I know how well I can play, and I proved it at the US Open, first of all, by beating difficult opponents in terms of playing style.

I’m ready. I hope to be able to demonstrate it on the ground. We can talk endlessly about who is ready, who is the favorite. But in the end, you just have to win,” Medvedev explained at a press conference.

In the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, Medvedev will meet Polish tennis player Hubert Hurkacz.
