L. Djere – D. Medvedev 2:0
Medvedev usually puts a lot of pressure on his forehand, but he doesn’t do that well on clay. Nevertheless, he can determine the rallies, but if he gets on the defensive, the number two in the world doesn’t move so well.

Another second round success?

The unloved topping
“The first week I arrive on the clay, I hate everything around me. I hate being on the pitch and that’s very rare for me.” That’s what Daniil Medvedev said last year about the surface that he dislikes so much. Of course, the Russian is still at the start of the French Open and wants to get as far as possible. The number two in the world clearly won his first match and wants to confirm this performance today.
