As with any athlete in the Olympic year, Daniil Medvedev looks forward to the Olympic Games. But like any Russian sportsman, he risks having a rather strange Olympiad, Russia having been excluded from Tokyo 2020 as a nation. Any Russian athlete wishing to align themselves will do so under a neutral banner, which the US Open 2019 finalist regrets in advance, in an interview with Marca.
"I would like to play in Japan with the colors of Russia," he begins. And to emphasize his point by highlighting the number of doping controls to which he is subjected throughout the year. "I am a tennis player and every week I undergo checks by all the agencies in all the countries of the world". Not sure that the transparency of the guy is enough to return the vapor.
