This Russian ATP Pro started his Miami Open venture this season quite well.

Now that fans spotted Medvedev enjoying parenthood at the Four Seasons Hotel at Florida’s Surf Club, they definitely felt great.

Medvedev’s recent clip with daughter Alisa will surely melt fans’ hearts. However, this ATP Pro once spoke about fatherhood’s influence on his career and how difficult it is to balance it with his professional career.

Daniil Medvedev said parenthood made him “mature a little bit”

During his Miami Open venture, Medvedev delved deeper into his challenges with fatherhood and its impact on his life. Medvedev said- “As a player I don’t think it changed me, to be honest, but hopefully it helps me mature a little bit. Many times I’m still immature on the court, but I feel like I’m improving slowly every year. That’s my goal. In life, hopefully, yeah that made me more mature, also, more responsible.”

In this challenge, Medvedev spoke highly of his wife Daria and her sacrifices. He said– “It’s not easy with tennis because, if you wanna see your daughter a lot, then your wife has to sacrifice a lot because she has to travel with the baby and many times it’s her taking the plane and not me. And a plane with a baby is not that easy. I’ve done it a couple of times, she has done it ten times more than me.”

Daniil Medvedev’s recent clip with his daughter Alisa surely delighted his fans’ hearts. Keeping aside the tournament’s pressure, it is great to see this ATP Pro enjoying his fatherhood.
