Recently, after winning the 4th round of the tournament, the 27-year-old tennis player was asked whether he would watch the other quarterfinals scheduled after his match. To which, Medvedev’s reply came quite sooner regarding how he will try his best to watch the American clash between Shelton and Tiafoe or even Novak Djokovic‘s quarter-final match.

He said, “I don’t know if it’s legal or illegal, but I have to find a way because I cannot watch it on TV. I got Internet, probably this, how you call it, pirate websites, I watch tennis there. I have no other choice. But at the same time sometimes I do want to watch some series. Do I put it on the phone or not?” 

While at first the US Open was quite available on television to watch, Disney Channel, including ABC and ESPN, has gone dark on the Charter spectrum due to some clashes, and it won’t be easy for him to watch these matches on the big screen.
