MOSCOW, January 24, Alexander Sergeev. President of the Russian Tennis Federation (RTF) Shamil Tarpishchev said that the Russian Daniil Medvedev naturally defeated the American Maxim Cressy in the fourth round match of the Australian Open. The meeting ended with the victory of the Russian with a score of 6:2, 7:6 (7:4), 6:7 (4:7), :5.» The game was boring, there was no tactical variety. Cressy preaches the «serve — to the net» style of play, which was how they played on fast grass in their time. It was difficult for Dana to keep his attention throughout the match, he is far enough from the back line stands. The main intrigue was who would sit down faster. We hoped that Danya would have enough strength to play at such a pace. In the end, it happened. Although it could have been easier if not for the third set. Danya won naturally, » Tarpishchev said. The specialist also spoke about how Medvedev needs to prepare for the next my opponent. It will be the Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime. «There are no random people at such a stage as the quarterfinals. He has played with the Canadian more than once, he knows his style of play. Auger-Aliassime is very good in terms of combinations. Now the main thing is to restore attention and concentration after such match, cleaning is necessary. I hope that everything will be fine, «Tarpishchev said.
