Tarpishchev praised Medvedev’s preparation for the US Open

President of the Russian Tennis Federation (RTF) Shamil Tarpishchev in an interview with , he confided what he thought of his last performances Daniel Medvedev and also assessed Russia’s readiness for the US Open.

On the eve of the world’s first racket, Medvedev was knocked out in the second round of the Masters in Canada and failed to defend the points for last year’s title.

— Daniil Medvedev lost in the second round of the tournament in Montreal. Are you worried about its shape?

– No, there are no questions for Medvedev regarding the quality of the game. In the match against Nick Kyrgios, he performed well. It’s just that Medvedev just came down from the middle mountains. It is difficult to play the next day after the descent. Luck played a role in this defeat. In the third set, with the score 1:1, Medvedev had two break points. Implement one and he would have won the game.

Of course, after Mexico, he wasn’t feeling his best functionally. I think Medvedev needs time to adapt. He counts his strength on the US Open.

— Medvedev did not play for a month and a half before the US Open. Is this the right tactic or was it worth letting games pass?

He skipped this segment to recover from his injury. Hand injuries are very dangerous. You remember the same Juan Martin Del Potro, who could never return to his level. Dani does not have such serious problems. It is important for him to approach this tournament in a functional way. The US Open, with its matches in five sets, places special demands on the physical form of the players. It is necessary not only to withstand physical and psychological stress, but also to recover. I think Medvedev is doing everything right,” Tarpishchev said.

The US Open begins on August 29.
