Medvedev at Indian Wells: "These are the slowest courts on the tour, no matter what people say."
Daniil Medvedev did not have to exert himself in his third-round match at Indian Wells, as his opponent, Alex Michelsen, retired after two games.
Speaking at a press conference, he once again shared his thoughts on the Indian Wells courts.
He stated: "I don't see any difference, but if I have to say something, I would say it's even slower than usual.
It's hard to say because we know it's already the slowest tournament on the tour, but every year when we come back, we forget how slow it was the last time.
It's slow beyond what the speed index or any parameter can show.
It's slow, no matter what people say; you can see in the matches how players have to work hard to hit a winning shot.
It's very slow, but I feel like I can play well here."
He will face Tommy Paul for a spot in the quarterfinals.
