“At the moment, Medvedev is the best tennis player among the younger generation, but I don’t know what will happen in the future,” Nadal quotes Tennis World USA.

He noted that now Medvedev is in fourth place in the world ATP ranking, and his performances this summer could hardly have developed even better.

“But there are many more young guys. Anyone who has the opportunity to develop and improve better than anyone else will get a chance to fight for the highest places in the next few years, ”added the 19-time winner of the Grand Slam tournaments.

In the US Open final of 2019, Nadal in five sets prevailed over Medvedev with a score of 7: 5, 6: 3, 5: 7, 4: 6, 6: 4.

Earlier it was reported that Medvedev and Khachanov will perform at the Asia-Pacific Cup in Australia.
