“Safioullin is a good player, but he’s not a star, and he’s not Medvedev.” Kamelzon discusses the couple’s defeat at the 2024 Olympics

Honored coach of Russia Vladimir Kamelzon reacted to the defeat of the Russians Daniel Medvedev And Romana Safioullina in the first round of the doubles of the Paris Olympic tournament.

Medvedev and Safiullin lost on Sunday to Germans Kevin Kravitz and Tim Puetz in two sets – 4:6, 4:6.

— Did the guys bet on other categories? I don’t know. When you’re not part of a team, it’s hard to say. Safiullin is a good player, but he’s not a star and he’s not Medvedev. Do you understand? Two stars didn’t play, a star and a good professional played. I can’t even say that they played each other somewhere, that the couple brought great success. So here, as with Andreeva, I don’t see anything wrong.

Can Nadal and Alcaraz be called the favorites in the doubles? The stars are already playing here. It would not be surprising if they won gold. Besides, I would like them to win it. They are the most iconic professionals,” Kamelzon was quoted as saying by Soviet Sport.
