After his semi-final win over John Isner at the National Bank Open in Toronto on Saturday, the Russian revealed that he sees no reason to hide his personality while talking to the press.
Medvedev admitted that on court, he adopts a different approach. Although he does not often hide his emotions, the Russian revealed that he does try to keep them in check at times during matches so as to remain focused.
“The more matches I win in Toronto and in Cincinnati, the better I’m going to feel for US Open” - Medvedev
After a rather disappointing clay and grass swing, Daniil Medvedev appears to be back to his best on the hardcourts in North America. On Sunday, he will take on Reilly Opelka in the Toronto final as he hopes to lift his third title of the season.
He will also be one of the favorites to win the Cincinnati Masters next week, as well as the US Open, which begins on August 30.
Medvedev said that while he is looking ahead to the final Grand Slam of the season, he is trying to remain focused on the task at hand. According to the Russian, winning matches is the best way to prepare for the US Open.
Despite playing a more rigorous schedule than several other top players, Medvedev insisted he was feeling fresh. The Russian did, however, point out that he will have to make some tough choices for the post-US Open swing, which includes the rescheduled Indian Wells Masters.
