Medvedev seems to be the real deal. Looking forward to seeing him win his first major one day soon. Tough ask against Novak when he’s in form. Hope everyone here is well.
Good to see you around, @nehmeth. Disappointing showing from Meddie, but I do think he's the real deal, too.

Medvedev has the stones along with the talent and athleticism. Novak took time away from him and attacked his forehand relentlessly. Danil and his coach didn’t seem to have a contingency plan to mix things up.

Well, after to watch that poor final the younger players definitely have to improve a lot more mentally. According what Novak said he has a muscle tear in the oblique but his service was better than ever and nothing in his game looked he had that problem. Definitely he knows how to act and to work psychologically like he did playing vs Fritz when he felt that he could have lost the match. There is something very clear, others players when have had a muscle tear or they have lost or they have had to retired. Sorry but I don't believe him and its sad that he still likes to draw on to those tricks

According to the article listed, he felt he learned something and will probably have contigency plans and alternatives thought out; I'D HOPE! :good:
