The Russian says goodbye at the first exchange after losing to the world number 173 in five sets
The Brazilian Thiago Seyboth Wild has been the executioner of a Medvedv who was aiming high in Paris, after winning the Masters 1000 in Rome
The surprise jumped in the first round at Roland Garros. Daniil Medvedev, number two in the world and brand new winner of the Masters 1000 in Rome, has fallen against all odds against the Brazilian number 172 in the world, Thiago Seyboth Wild.
The Russian, who has been uncomfortable since the start of the match, has seen how the Brazilian tennis player increased his level until crowning the feat in the fifth set. 7-6, 6-7, 2-6, 6-3 and 6-4 in 4 hours and 15 minutes of the game.
Medvedev has once again shown his worst face, facing the public on several occasions and without being able to counteract in a large part of the game the daring game of a Seyboth Wild that he had not achieved a single victory in a Grand Slam tournament so far.
Despite the fact that clay has never been Medvedev’s preference, the Russian came with great expectations after winning the tournament in Rome, where he had recovered the number 2 in the world.
