Russian tennis player Daniel Medvedev spoke about the features of the field of the Masters Series tournament in Indian Wells and the tactics that should help him win the final against Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz.
On Saturday, Medvedev reached the Masters final by beating American Tommy Paul. In Sunday’s decisive match, the Russian will play against Alcaraz. Tennis players have already played five matches against each other, the score was 3:2 in favor of the Spanish representative.
– Do you still think you have to play a perfect match against Alcaraz? Is it a healthy approach to a match to think you have to play perfectly?
— I think so, because that’s how I approached the match against Sinner in the final of the Australian Open. I knew the last three times he beat me, and if I want to win, I have to give it my all, 11 out of 10, 20 out of 10, it doesn’t matter. This is how I entered the match with Carlos and the 2023 US Open.
I always think that way, especially on this pitch. I think today Carlos showed why I personally think this court is perfect for him. Small slow bounces sometimes give him time and he doesn’t worry about the wind here.
If I want to win the final I have to see what I can do tactically, but I have to try to play along the line, make incredible shots, get into his head and try to win that way “Medvedev said at a press conference. press conference.
