"He's still the best in the world" - Medvedev on Djokovic

Daniil Medvedev failed to beat Novak Djokovic yet again and after the match, he could only concede that he lost to the best in the world.

Djokovic and Medvedev played in the Adelaide International 1 semi-final and somewhat surprisingly Djokovic won in two sets. It gets even more interesting when you think about Djokovic's muscle injury in the first set which had him moving a bit slower than usual for a while.

“Honestly, losing against probably best player in the world right now. Of course, Carlos in terms of rankings because he’s done amazing in one part of the year, 2022."

"He’s first. But also since he’s not in Australian Open, Novak probably best in the world right now. He won four tournaments in a row, five tournaments in a row."

The Russian had no idea what to do with Djokovic especially when he started serving very well in the second set. It's left him signalling to his team that he doesn't know what to do. He's certainly disappointed about the result:

“Bit disappointed, but that’s also positive. I felt great tonight, really great, that’s good for Australian Open. But feeling that great, I lost. That’s a little bit the negative."

And added:

“So, yeah, hopefully no Novak on my side of the draw in Australian Open. But even if it’s not the case, going to try my best and going to try to do better next time like I was able to do against him before.”
