AOHighlights
Medvedev gets to every ball and he doesn’t seem to get tired. Powerful combination!
Clearly from the planet Jupiter.
He is Marathon runner.
His endurance blows my mind, I don't understand how he hits the ball the same way in hour 1 and hour 4 of a match
Malísima recopilación. El partido fue excelente. Aquí no parecería que ganó Medvédev. Pasaron 90% de lo puntos ganados por el griego. Australian open, mi grand sland preferido....👎
Can Nadal find an answer to this combination?
The last set was a masterclass by Medvedev, controlled offensive shot making 👏
But unfortunately there are only 2 rallies from there. Medvedev won last 3 points with backhand winners. And there are no his amazing backhand passing shots.
@@osmotreno agreed, they should post the full match :) I think a lot of people would be interested. I greatly enjoyed watching it live.
@@rainmaster9514 ㅈ. ㅍ푸무
The best thing about Medvedev is that he goes to every ball no matter how the play ends. That is the same thing that Djokovic does, and he takes risks in the game, whoever does not risk does not win.
i agree. and med is one those guys where you looks like you hit a winner but somehow he gets to the ball. very good defense
Medvedev is a taller version of joker without fancy strokes. His mental and physical are definitely in the same league as Joker. He will go far!
Cannot ignore that fact. I agree. He really goes for every shot. Never gives up. Takes chances, risks. Clearly the better strategist in this case. Tsitsipas had it on his racket in Set1 but bungled it.
@LAURA FANELLI It was!!!! The best of all times!!! Rafa Nadal!!!👏👏👏👏 Djockovic is not half of the man Nadal is!!!
Risk nothing today with rafa he play every ball on the middle where is the risk play?
Wow what a handshake at the end 😳 Tsitsipas grow up already 😄😄
not really
what are you talking about stop trying to make drama
He’s a dirty bum. 100
@@bigboymatthew7471 they don't like each other, that's a fact you're in denial.
Medvedev can hold his nerves, play super aggressive, AND be hungry to win! He has multiple champion level characteristics and he surely deserved to win 💯
Yeah, we saw a overly cautious tsitsipas playing with a huge margin. Never risked more to put the ball closer to the line or corners
I want Nadal to win
Yeah but he was struggling badly in his match against Auger in Quarters. Nadal is a different beast in Majors.
@@arifsharp So is Djokovic, and Med beat him at the US Open
@@chiefscheider I think djoko was feeling pressure of winning all four grand slam in same year. Later last year Djoko won against Medvedev in Paris masters final .
Kudos to Australian Tennis tv, best highlights on tennis by far , and you guys post so fast , the match is just finish, great work
Yes but unfortunately they spoil the result in every thumbnail
@@forthebirds4 Exactly what I was about to say. I started to cover the screen but sometimes you see it anyways.
The highlights a great BUT they spoil the winner in the thumbnail! And that pretty much counters any excitement out of the video
@@forthebirds4 It would be so easy for them to put both players. Can't understand why they don't
@@chiefscheider It's purposely done to get you to pay subscription, while keeping you "satisfied" with extended highlight.
Daniils movement and anticipation might be the best on tour.
On hard courts
best tumor for tennis
@@robertoamenabar9970 ?
@@davidbregman1622 best to ignore trolls haha Better for your blood pressure
I have to say that is the most classless crowd ever ... booing before between and DURING Medvedev's serves
When have they ever? What they did to Berrettini when against Monfils is sickening.
They do that at every major maybe except Wimbledon. Aussies are excited to see live tennis and aren’t channeling it in the right away.
It's because they know if Medvedev wins, he's going to clean Nadal's clock.
They were rooting for the little princess....
@@chrato74 chrato, what did the crowd do during the monfils Berrettini match??
Medvedevs reaction when he won was priceless
Not as good as his reaction when he beat the hunchback clown Kyrgios
@@chiefscheider kyrgios is a good player he deals with a lot sometimes. medvedev also has lots of outbursts so shut up
Medvedev has the most consistent and big serves. It always bails him out in critical moment.
I'm not one for drama in tennis but a part of me really enjoys that Daniil and Stefanos ABSOLUTELY can't stand one another. Heightens their rivalry quite a bit and hopefully pushes both to spend that extra minute in training or squeeze in that last set of sprints to get better. Also for Tstisipas, the less his father is involved, the better he'll be ... guaranteed. See it all the time and throughout history as well.
That’s because Stefano is a little boy who doesn’t know how to fight
Yeah the rivalries aren't quite as interesting when they're all best friends.
@@dcvcv small kid who doesn't know how to fight*
Let's go Danill and win the title AO 2022 AND take it all standing ovations. 🎾🎾
Congratulations and respect Mr. Medvedev !!!!! Go get the AO trophy , we will be cheering 👏 👏👏
Nadal is going to snatch the title. Nadal is more hungry, more lethal and 10x more determine right now.
@@jasonlewis460 hes also a lot older and is in a worse shape
He's rude and his antics behaviiour uncalled for!
@@hunyuekhan6422 yup.. cant handle the crowd not supporting him
@@ibby217 Go and eat humble pie. Nadal proves you are wrong.
HIS FATHER CAN TALK EVERY POINT >:O
Cheering for or against Medvedev doesn't matter, he is still going to play. He prefer if folks don't make any noise between serves, but he still moves along anyway. His greatest joy is winning against a player and against the crowd.
Ugh, isn't it any tennis players greatest joy to win against their opponents?
@@Drakmaster1337 "winning again a player AND against the crowd."
@@ironxdoll looks like Nadal just won against the player Medvedev
@@Drakmaster1337 yes, I know. My statement about what Moorish said is still valid though :)
Tsitsipas must have tired a bit at the end of the match. Medvedev does not seem to tire. His conditioning is unbelievable. I've been a tennis fan for a long time and remember Ivan Lendl's style. Medvedev is similar, but a little taller and with a 2-handed backhand. Medvedev runs well too, as well as anybody I've ever seen at his height.
Yeah, the amount of run Med did is incredible. I wonder where his power reserve is though. When you use energy, you eventually consume fat/muscle and convert to energy when you run out of what you ate. Medvedev muscle? Fat? I don’t see any and the guy run like crazy. You can argue that he is light so doesn’t take much to move. But man, it seems to defy logic to me. Marathon runner like Kipchoge still loose tons of weigh after a marathon. Medvedev doesn’t have anything to loose to begin with. Very puzzling.
Sissypas always looks exhausted, even after the first few points of a match. Mouth always open, gasping for air like a dying fish...
@@chiefscheider , you so funny! Lol🤣😅😂😆
@@wisanu99 You'll be surprised how much calories are packed in your body fat. I believe there some calculations that an average size American has enough fat to survive a 60 day fast. There are obviously differences in the level of play, but I don't think I ever lose more than 2 lbs after playing 2-3 hours in the sun. Most of the lost is just liquid though. I usually go back to my normal weight after lunch and dinner.
@@chiefscheider On point description yet he still look ridiculously good-looking in every angle! Athenian God!!
So happy to see the love Tsitsipas nurtures for Medvedev.
They are best buddies
@@positivelastaction3957 Yes and they definitely were not ready to take off each others heads 4 years ago.
Oh yeah for sure. Cheatcheatpas should be the bottom in my opinion, though his pack looks bigger
Medvedev is the real deal, mental strength is miles ahead of almost all of his similar age group players. I m sure he will have at least 6-8 grand slam titles. (Being conservative on my part)
I think you're right.
is a tumor for tennis
@@robertoamenabar9970 sure, that´s the reason of why he is the second best player of the world, sure you play better
@Brian Britto palacios Here's hoping Nadal has enough left in the tank to beat Medvedev. Unless Nadal tanks, I think it's gonna go 5 sets. I don't see Nadal winning in 3 or 4.
@@agus.L I bet Roberto can’t even beat me
Молодец Даня! Намного лучше предыд матча, удачи тебе в ФИНАЛЕ!
An intense rivalry between these two, egos just pouring gasoline on the inner fire. Gotta love it!
The air must be so tight during that game. When all their past history is considered, how they balance their fire and inner peace to deliver those performance. Man, I feel nervous and cold sweat even just by watching.
Brilliant show by Medvedev, a future superstar!
He is a superstar already ;-; world number 2 and soon to be world number 1
Future superstar?? He will be 26 February 11th, he better hurry up then lol
Future? Already here, especially if he wins the final.
a present*
@@ToonLink240 If? i like Nadal, but there's no way Medvedev is losing. He's become a better version of Djokovic on the hard courts and he's still getting better. The only one I see challenging him is Felix Aliassime.
Nah medvedev is different gravy. To be able to run like that at his height while still having huge pace on the ball on the run and sublime shot making to boot, massive serve. He is 6’6” running every ball down and doesn’t seem to gas. As it stands this guy is virtually unbeatable and will only get better as he gains more experience and hours in high pressure situations, something Rafa still has over him. Thankfully this guy doesn’t waste his talent and genetic gifts on a baby mental attitude unlike some others on tour. I just hope he doesn’t get injured playing like this
Medvedev has a dangerous combination of Djokovic's clutchness and Nadal's relentlessness
Nadal and Medvedev. My two favorite players meeting in the AO Finals
You have to respect the effort and endurance by Medvedev
THANK YOU, MEDDY! I slept during the day yesterday so I'd have no trouble staying up for your semifinal match. Congrats and good luck versus RAFA!!! :)
Great handshake at the end
Nice highlights but PLEASE DO NOT REVEAL THE WINNER IN THE THUMBNAIL for those of us not knowing already the winner !!
I’ve been saying this forever !!
I know, I saw a MILLION complaints about this and Yet the Aussie highlights Creators don't seem to give a F!!
Best quality tennis I've watched in a while.
I don’t care what anyone says, Medi is fucking raw🔥🔥🔥
There is no highlight without HIS FATHER CAN TALK EVERY POINT?!
Congratulations to Medvedev for a fantastic and great performance in the Semifinals today. I really appreciate your fighting spirit, dedication and hard work to put in your work inspite of not getting the support of the Australian crowd. A Great Champion is always great which one should not forget. Inspite of your hectic and tight fight in all your games and less time to rest and importance given to you . DANIIEL - Only need to get calm on your emotions by taking tablets like Novak the greatest. I am sure there will extra drama on Sunday the FINAL, one more game. You r one of the best Tennis player in Men's team. Keep up the good work. My best wishes. Cheers - GOD BLESS. 👏👏👍👍🍻🍻
Yes. Zverev and Tsitsipas are the closest, but currently he seems to be the best
It's gonna be an amazing fight sunday against the greatest player of all times 👏👏👏
Lights out performance from Medvedev! To beat Tsitsipas this convincingly, who was in scintillating form himself (dismantling the dangerous Sinner) and especially after a grueling 5 hours QF, is pretty incredible. The only person who i would bet, to beat Dani in this form, is a Djokovic playing near his best. Rafa is looking great, but i don't seeing him beating this version of Medvedev. Hopefully, I'm wrong.
Even Djokovic may struggle, but I'll still bet on him, assuming he plays near his best. This is not the same Medvedev from AO'21.
A younger Nadal was a absolute beast even on hardcourt, he still is dangerous, but he's slowed down considerably. He needs to pull all the tricks out of his bag to get past Medvedev.
I hope Med wins. I love Nadal and the 3, but I kind of want new and fresh. Although Medvedev already has won USO, I think it’ll be great if he can win even more.
You guys are all crazy, Nadal is faster and is playing better than anyone in this tournament. Nadal 21st grand slam coming soon
Tshitsipas underestimated Medvedev thinking he had the advantage of having a quick QF with Sinner. I didn't expect him to win because he didn't play that well the whole tournament. He played brilliantly with a still unexperienced Sinner so people thought "he dismantled him he will be on fire in the SF" turns out he was the more tired of the two. If he played the whole tournament like with Sinner I would have been impressed but no.. last year it happened that he had an exhausting QF with Nadal making a comeback and thought it would happen the same to Medvedev with FAA but no 🤷♂️
How amazing! Tsitsipas is now as good as early federer in terms of making the game exciting to watch, switching techniques and changing routes. That's why we watch, isn't it?
I wish this were true. The game really misses fed at this point. These guys have their own sort of excitement, but it's nowhere near what Fed produced when he was flying.
Tsitsipas plays more like Tommy Haas Federer's appeal has always been his perfect technique and variety Tsitsipas is pretty far in both (his injury last year was because he muscles his shots too much) Federer was effortless and could dismantle you in more ways than you could count
@@williamabaker12 No. Many of the players these days don't have any excitement at all, and Tsitsipas had quite something already, that's my point
Anyone else see that awkward fist bump handshake with Medvedev and the umpire
probably just a miscommunication
no big deal, life goes on
This is why I love tennis. Other worldly play by both. Medvedev is a cool dude.
A really well-played match by both players but Medvedev is just too relentless shutting down Stefanos in the last set. Med is just too tough now and keeps raising his stellar game. Rafa won’t be able to handle him if he plays like this.
Reminds me a bit of Roger vs. Novak. The first set is critical for one, but not the other. The quality on both sides, the high tennis acumen, the range of shot-making skills--it is like watching a Big 4 match.
its delightful to watch play Medvedev . not force but strategy
Good game, Good tennis. Congratulations to both players.
Medvedev is amazing. I hope with his work rate over time he doesn't get injured like Murray.
Nice long stare by Medvedev to Tsitsipas’ box at the end…..
How do you know he wasn't staring at his own box?
@@jeffreykaufmann2867 common sense
@@B777Skipper players always stare at their own box after they win a match
@@jeffreykaufmann2867 Whatever you say dude! You have all the answers. Guess you were sitting in the stands and saw it live. Thanks for your two cents of great information.
@@B777Skipper Im guessing you were in the stands since you say he was staring at Tsitsipas' Box.
Tsi is such a princess
Set 1 was one of the highest quality sets of the year.
ooof you could tell this one hurt for Stef to lose... he was playing so well... 1st set was such a coinflip really...
He needs to let go of one backhand, it’s nice and beautiful but gets you tired in rallies and your forehand power attack decreases.
@@Mavert83 seriously? Giving up one of the biggest weapons? Can u imagine Wawrinka winning any majors with double handed?
@@poisson12376 all modern coaches talk about this. The one backhand has strength weakness, specially nowadays when balls are bullets. I’m a Federer fan and it’s beautiful to see one backhand shots but demands to much physical - with two backhanded you can reserve strength in your forehand shots - USTA 4.0 💪
@@Mavert83 His 1hbh is not the issue; in contrast, Tsitsipas got mentally fatigued in the third and fourth set. I think that when he lost that 3rd set, he didn't know what to do against Medvedev.
@@yakzivz1104 look closely how one tired one backhand rallies give some middle court weak shots. I used to be a one backhanded and I switch. Obviously I’m not a pro but I’ve been following very closely backhand matches for 2 years, I was curious. One thing that can make my case, there was an interview done to Gregor Dimitrov and they told he has nice return slices and he said it was to regain strength after many rallies. But again it’s my analysis, I also talk about this with other one backhand tennis players in my tournament. But response was “ slice “ more to regain strength and court reset rallies
There should be a hell of a lot more upvotes on a match as good as this.
Both guys can serve well and then put the second shot anywhere they want to. Tsitsipas' volleys maybe a little better than Med's. Tsitsipas' *level* came down just a little bit during the course of the match perhaps. A lot of people point out how Medvedev plays each point 100% and never concedes.This could be a critical difference. But ... could it be the factor that gave Medvedev the edge is that the 1-hand backhand just doesn't hold up as well against the 2? Sure, it's flashy and appears as a magnificent flourish when it wins the point. But in extended backhand exchanges over the course of 4 or 5 sets, the 2-handed backhand may give the edge to otherwise equal players.
I think it might be that Tsitsipas can't always create the amount of power that for example Thiem or Wawrinka could create. Shapovalov creates great power too!
Straight up Rafa fan here, I agree w/Skyler Kim: Meddie is controlled, level-headed & determined. As competitive as Meddie is, nothing, nothing rattles or phases him. W/Nadal, he tends 2 choke when stressed & Nadal's pushing 36. Meddie rained on Novak's 21st GS party. I have a feeling he's going to do the same w/Nadal. That said, complete Respect for both players.
Nadal tends to choke when stressed?! Come on, this is nonsense and you know it. Guy has 20 grand slams.
Nadal stands no chance against Daniil on sunday
@@wn8394 This didn’t age well.
Medvvedev is one of the greatest counter puncher in tennis history till date. Just like Novak, he can absorb any pressure throw at him
Medvedev 🔥🔥🔥
Tsitsipas’ coach/father should be banned for a couple of matches. This way, he will learn a lesson
Couple of tourneys. This is getting out of hand.
What did he do?
His father, who is also his coach, keeps coaching him during the games. They had been fines twice already in this Aus Open prior to the semi final.
@@KundaSandy2010 Sissipants is a bum
@@KundaSandy2010 Everyone does coaching😂
That handshake with the umpire lmfao. Medvedev funny XD.
Who would you pick for the win hypothetically, assuming they played in the finals and why: Medvedev or Djokovic?
Going by current form: Medvedev in 5.
Djokovic!!
Well the only test point was the US Open. Medvedev.
@@TheJhtlag Lol they played in Aus 2021 final. Djokovic 3 straight.
Until someone beats Djokovic at the Australian you have to favor him
Vamos Danil ! El domingo te llevas el AO ! El publico es muy bajo intelectualmente 😂
Medvedev TE AMO CARAJO ERES BUENISIMO!
Daniil sos un capo, felicitaciones.
Med is the future open austalian champ
The difference in the match was completely mental. One player exerted his will to produce enough winners, and the other player seemed to be fighting himself.
shit umpire, where do they find these people for these huge matches. They need a set group of established, respected, and known umpires to do these sorts of matches.
That was one cold handshake in the end.
only one salty and petulant guy in it; meddy was ready to give a decently warm one.
@@DanielBoonelight Yeah i was talking about Stefanos. He didnt even look at him.
@@DanielBoonelight bullshit...what do u want him to do..Hug him lol MALAKA
@@osint6372 there are myriad comments about stef being salty dude, gimme a break
Heck of a match.
I don't understand why Stefanos can't get to the next level, he has the game and appears to do all the correct things. Daniil got skills.
I dunno, he's sort of a high level grinder. That's it, he'll have good days and bad days but I think that's as well as he can play
Imo he’s right there after Daniil
He doesnt have the mental strength. The other players have more energy.
Maybe he need to have a new coach as his father always keep coaching during the match. He need to envolve more decision making himself cause it is difficult for him to not listen and follows his father advice
@@tangck1874 Its okay, if his dad sneaks in some coaching. Its fun.. I think it build drama. I also think we needs linesman. it build tension. Tennis supposed to have some drama.
Medvedev is already a champion in his own way, and I think the final will be a good one, however, I haven't seen Rafa this hungry in a while. He is humble in media conferences about his intentions, but you can tell the man feels the fire here. #rafa21
Great highlights for an amazing high-intensity match!
Anyone noticed the awkward fist bump turned handshake at the end between Med and the umpire? XD
Medvedev reminds me of Djokovic's game. Very impressive shot making.
Of course you all would. You are all dimwits.
@@markuse3472 the E stands for Einstein, right?
@@anirbanspr I prefer Tesla: Einstein is hyped due to pop culture stupidity.
Congratulations to Daniil Medvedev. He displayed a magnificent tennis match. Stefanos simply did not have a response to Daniil's shots. Daniil is so humble, down to earth, and pleasure to watch. However, very low class spectators booed him. But he does not care. Also, I used to like Stefano but with the kind of shake hand he had with Daniil, not anymore. Be a man accept the defeat. Daniil is in a different class than Stefanos. If you don't like it too bad.
Tsitsipas was always rude. I used to kind of like him because he plays well but I do not like his attitude at all. Especially after the bathroom break drama
The only question on Sissypants left is whether he is more of a bum or more of a clown
@@DarkMysteriousObject good one. Stephanie is both I guess🤣
@@TheDaleraka Maybe both at the same time
well, daniel is venting because wife has to also serve putin, while he is away on the job, and tsipas has to answer to daddy scolding now
Medvedev moves so well I always forget how tall he is until he stands beside something or someone and remember he’s a giant. Amazing combination of skill, endurance and mental fortitude
Yes. your spirite and yor dedication is the luxury .Is this your moment your time the cup is your your game is perfect I love you!!!!!!!
Vamos Medveded !!
Great highlight video, lets leave the best bit out
Medvedev the 2022 Australian Open champion 🏆🏆
No
@@sin8901 its even better, I am Rafas fan too. Medvedev will have chances to win many more times . Rafa is almost done with his career.
That was much better tennis than in the other semi. Tsitsipas put up a real fight. His brand of attacking tennis is a pleasure to watch.
I have a suggestion on how to handle returners who stay 10 feet behind the baseline when they are returning serve. People have already started to hit them hidden drop shots, which is a good strategy,,,but what about this? If the receiver is way back there, why not move over and serve from the doubles position, between 10 and 20 feet from the middle of the court? This would increase the potential angles of service considerably...maybe even get the returner to move forward, which would lighten up YOUR serve
It's very unfortunate Tsitsipas lost the tiebreaker in the first set, that could have changed the whole complexion of the match. He will have to do better in future matches to find ways to beat Medvedev, who he is currently the best young player of this generation.
Medvedev is awesome! Hope he wins this GS I wanted to see Nole and Daniil at the final...
i wanted to see you and me in the final
People can say all they want o about the US Open crowds, but the we hold the Aussies beer every year at the AO. They are by far the most disrespectful compared to all the other Slams.
Totally agree- it's like they refuse to shut up during points!!
Yes, they are, if they don't like you that don't hold back. The New York crowd as well.
@@jamesmcgarrity9648 Maybe but the Aussies take it to a whole new level. Even the French crowds get rowdy. I guess it's the Brits who are the last CIVILization.
TO AUSTRALIAN OPEN TV : For the love of god, please don’t spoil the results in the thumbnails. These are the best highlights of any grand slam media and we appreciate it but spoiling the winner ruins it! PLS thumbs up so they can see this! 🙏🙏
Tsitsipas needs to develop flatter groundstrokes. His classic topspin backhand particularly needs to become more of a weapon a la Federer.
DANIEL 👍👍EXELENTE 👏👏👏👏👏👏congratulations
That last handshake was even better than the match.
Let's be honest, I don't think Nadal is beating this Medvedev, unless Medvedev is having a bad day.
Lets be honest, Nadal is winning in straight sets.
@@jasonlewis460 don't really think so, all of the Nadal's opponent until now we're poor apart from Shapovalov. Medvedev will kill Badal if he plays like this.
The readings of medvedev are next level
Can somebody explain to me what were those booing for towards the end of the match??
It's partly the silly Aussie "Siiu" thing which is basically cheering in their own culture. Siiu sounds like booing. And partly because some were rooting for the cry baby. I really don't like the Siiu thing. It gets us all confused and I'm sure sometimes the winner would think "What did I do to deserve this booing??".
@@ak-iy4yb who is the cry baby
@@osint6372 tsitsipas
Where can I watch the replay in the usa
Tsitsipas can't hang with the master class, he needs to add to some emotions into his game. He was a very flat soda in the 3rd and 4th set.
1st set only, Tsitsipas is a lightweight, though gets everything and in this case, is showing better clarity in his game than many I have to say, might flip to end of highlights
2021 semi Medvedev, 2022 semi Medvedev - no fluke.
That's a minus 30 degree handshake from Tsitsipas
Yay Daniil!
These two re going to be the ones that will battle it out in future. We'll see much more of this in the years to come. Classic rivalry - brilliant sociopath vs powerful, overprotected hypersensitive guy.
Good psychological diagnosis :)
Man, this two really hate each other hahahaha.
AO please do NOT spoil the winner in the thumbnail!
With our luck, I bet they'll just switch to putting the loser in the thumbnail.... :)
I have to give it to Tsitsipas here, he plays with clarity AND poise in this match, granted he likes to dictate his playstyle, sometimes freezing after his shots, buthere looking like an equal and playing a little more open handed and this is definitely better form
Medvedev the new 2022 AO champion!!
He is lose, Rafa mental warrior more strength
look at me, his father talked to him during the match and you think this is normal? lol
I knew the match was over as soon as Medvedev came back from 1-4 down in the first set tiebreak to win 7-5. That was the moment this match was won. To think people said Medvedev would be tired after his marathon game with Felix Auger-Aliassime in the semis. How wrong they were!
these 'i have so much acumen and insight that iiiiii was able to predict the result at x point' comments are so hilariously lame.
@@DanielBoonelight , can you enlighten me where in my original post I spoke of my insight or special acumen? If you have any idea of the past history between Medvedev and Tsitsipas starting from the first match at Miami in 2018 , you'll know Medvedev has a psychological edge over Tsitsipas.
@@kyekyeeminah8734 thanks professor. yes i watch a ton of tennis, like most people who scour highlights on youtube, but thanks. unfortunately these ego-stroke comments like yours above or the classic 'i knew he was gonna be special' when a new player is doing particularly well happen surprisingly often; you actually believe that i thought you had to go out and say 'i have special insight' to come off in a self-important manner? um. you don't. it's implied. it's called basic self-awareness. lol. "how wrong they were! but iiiii knew better." and btw, i disagree-- that wasn't "the moment the match was won." give me a break dude. in the first set tiebreak? not, not at all. there were many more plot points and many more mental wreslings after that, including meddy's inner struggles with anger toward the coach-cheating, which arguably cost him the set, but he righted himself thereafter luckily. as IF he had already won it in set 1. that's what makes these majors. they're 5 sets, and take TONS more between the ears. but glad you knew the entire outcome of the match by then. teach us, nostradamus!
@@DanielBoonelight , you must be a school teacher to write a whole paper in reply to a short comment on YT. Well finish marking your scripts and enjoy your weekend.
It's about time someone put Russia back into the men's tennis elite and Medvedev is the man to do it. Well, yes, he will have to be very well prepared to defeat a Rafa Nadal who is thirsty for triumphs and who has been doing everything very well during the course of this tournament, same Russian too. In my opinion, may the best man win, because they both deserve it!💪🏻😍🎾🇪🇦♥️🇷🇺
The umpire shakes hands with tsitsipas and then closes the fist with Medvédev hahaha
