Medvedev...
Kinda good though
Still an arsehole
How on earth he won that set I have no idea. Nadal seemed to be on top of him all set!
Can’t blame him for shoving it to the crowd there. Playing in front of people who loudly cheer your errors then boo Hawkeye for awarding you points would really get on your tits.
You have to admire Medvedev's game. The man is a stone cold assassin
Absolutely. Skinny as a rake but brutal.
He looks like Kevin from accounts. Evidence that you don't need to look athletic to be a great tennis player. He has the opportunity to dominate for a little while

I don't get this, or tennis followers in general. Does anyone know Medvedev or do they just not like a player who beats players they like, who they also don't know.
I wouldn't endear myself to a crowd that booed me either.

It was pretty shit, and unfortunately I think it worked too.

I'm rating him based on his tanty to the ump in the semi.
Entitled millennial who thinks telling louder makes your argument right. (Even if he may have had a point.)

Wasn't he proven to be correct? Haven't tennis umpires demonstrated an inability to do their job competently? I'd hardly pass judgement on a person for doing the same thing I would; be insistent that someone do the job they're there to do.

Damn - after the first set, I thought Medvedev would walk home.
After the second set, I thought Rafa had blown his chance.
Get up this morning and he's won 21 Grand Slams.
He's probably the guy I'd least like to compete against in sport. Appears to never know when he's beaten and fights to the last point.
