“It's good that I managed to win in three sets and didn't even get to the score 7: 5, because after six months without tennis it's not easy to recover by playing four or five games.
It was a day off, and we played only three sets, so I feel good, ”the press service of the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) quotes Medvedev.
He celebrated the successes of his opponent at his debut US Open.
“I won one match in the first four Grand Slam tournaments.
He won two on the first, so I'm sure he will move up the rankings and play well.
Today, this was not enough.
I did everything to make it difficult for him, ”added the Russian tennis player.
Earlier it was reported that Karen Khachanov lost to Alex de Minor in the third round of the US Open.
