Russian professional, Daniil Medvedev, has moved on from his nightmarish exit from the Rotterdam Open 2021. He is now in the quarterfinals of the ATP Marseille Open 2021, where he will face Italian teenager Jannik Sinner.
Previously, the 25-year-old had hoped to become World No. 2 and break the big four’s position-hold of 16 years. But his unexpected opening-round defeat against Serbian Dusan Lajovic in the Netherlands put his dreams on hold.
Now, the reigning Australian Open finalist has a chance to complete his unfinished business in the Open 13 tournament in France. Subsequently, in his on-court interview after his recent victory, the Russian opened up on his plans ahead.

Moreover, the two-time runner-up at Grand Slam finals, Medvedev, talked about winning and losing in the sport.
“But when you win a lot of matches in a row, you can lose a few first rounds, and then you are feeling like you’re playing very bad. You always have to remember good moments. I know that I can play good indoors, for sure,” Daniil said.
To sum up, the Russian acclaimed Egor Gerasimov, his round of 16 opponent, based on his talent. Following that, Medvedev opened up on the prospects of his next opponent, Jannik Sinner.
He said, “He (Sinner) is a really strong player, so it’s going to be an interesting match. That’s a tough draw, but it’s also good to play if you’re actually ready to win the tournament or not.” Watch Day 4 highlights in Marseille below.
