Russian tennis player Daniils Medvedevs On Sunday, in the final of the Paris “Masters” tournament, he was able to recover from the loss in the first set and defeated the German Alexander Zverev.
Medvedev, the fifth and third racket of the tournament, defeated Zverev in the final with 5-7, 6-4, 6-1, who is in the seventh position in the ATP ranking, but was placed with the fourth number in Paris.
For Medvedev, this was his first success at the Paris tournament. He had also not won any of the ATP races this season, but he had won eight trophies during his career. Significantly, all progress has been made on hard surfaces.
“I’m really happy,” said the Russian athlete after the third Masters title. “As I usually say, I may not show it after the games, but I’m happy to win.”
Both players will continue the season in the final tournament of the ATP tour in London, which is scheduled for November 15-22. Zverev won this tournament two years ago.
“I was not in good shape before the tournament. I didn’t play in any of the finals, so I complained to my wife about it, “Medvedev said, revealing that he had regained the taste for games in the Paris tournament and was able to withstand the pressure from his opponents.
Zverev lost a series of 12 won games with the loss. He also broke a series of wins in tournaments, having previously triumphed twice in a row at the ATP World Tour 250 in Cologne.
The German tennis player also revealed that the claims of his ex-girlfriend Olga Sharipova that Zverev was strangled during the French Open last year are not true. “I know there are many who want to remove a smile from my face, but I still smile,” added the tennis player.
Earlier in the semi-finals, Zverev unexpectedly defeated the Spanish Rafael Nadal, but Medvedev dealt with Milos Raonich from Canada.
The hard tournament in Paris took place from November 2 to 8. Last year, the victory was won by Serb Novak Djokovic, who previously revealed that he does not plan to defend the title this year.
