German, six-time Grand Slam singles winner Boris Becker declared himself disappointed with the Russian victory Daniel Medvedev above Alexander Zverev in the semi-final of the Australian Open.
On Friday, Medvedev (3rd seed) defeated Zverev (6th seed) in the semifinals with a score of 5:7, 3:6, 7:6 (7:4), 7:6 (7:5 ), 6:3. The meeting lasted 4 hours 18 minutes.
– I’m a little upset and disappointed. The match started very well for Zverev, who won in two sets. In the third, it seemed that Medvedev was tired and could not resist. Maybe Zverev ultimately made too many unforced errors – the stats don’t lie. 70 unforced errors is too many. Especially if you look at when it happened: at the end of the fourth and fifth sets. He played four hours of world-class tennis, but unfortunately not in the final minutes. Medvedev wasn’t the best player, but he was the strongest. He didn’t make as many unforced errors,” Becker said according to Eurosport.
The Australian Open final between Medvedev and Italian Jannik Sinner will take place on Sunday.
