Russian tennis player Daniel Medvedev said he could not yet cite the reasons for the defeat against the Italian Jannik Sinner in the quarter-finals of the US Open.
The match ended with a score of 6:2, 1:6, 6:1, 6:4 in favor of the world’s number one racket.
“It wasn’t my best match, and it wasn’t his best match either.” The way tennis works is that sometimes you don’t know the exact reason (for the loss). So it could be anything. I mean, he played well. Maybe it was the ball itself, the way he hit it. It could be a lot of different things. I don’t have an answer yet, and I probably won’t, as to why that happened.
A competition like this always pushes me to be better. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, next time I’ll try to be better.
Sinner is one of the best tennis players in the world, ranked among the top, and he deserves it. It’s difficult to play against him. He has a good feel for the game. I’ve had a hard time playing against him lately, but at the same time, honestly, compared to some matches I played with him last year, where he started to beat me regularly, I felt like I did everything right this time,” Medvedev said at a news conference.
The score of personal matches is 7:6 in favor of Medvedev. In the last seven matches, the Russian has beaten the Italian once – in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon 2024.
