“The problem is that there is soil in Paris.
I have three years.
This year at Roland Garros I played well, but I could have played better with Tsitsipas.
The Olympics gave me an unrealistic experience.
I went there and thought: "I am going to play for the country, but this is another tournament that you need to try to win."
And when I arrived, for the first time in my life I felt what it means to play for the country.
And we were also without a flag.
I had a desire to tear and throw, but I was not ready to win the tournament for various reasons, ”Sport24 quotes Medvedev.
The Russian stopped fighting for Olympic medals in Tokyo at the quarterfinals stage, losing to the Spaniard Pablo Carreno-Busta.
The next Olympic Games will be held in 2024 in Paris.
Earlier, Medvedev replied that winning the Grand Slam tournament on his wedding anniversary means to him.
