Medvedev started the season after skipping the beginning of the year to spend time with his family and focus on training before competing in tournaments.
Famous Russian coach Viktor Yanchuk told "Gazeta.Ru" that he considers the net normal for tennis player Danila Medvedev, expressing confidence that the athlete will easily pass the first rounds and gradually gain form and confidence.
He is not afraid of any opponent and is ready to give a fight to everyone, Yanchuk noted.
His first match at the Australian Open against Frenchman Terence Atman ended with a victory for the Russian after a difficult start. Medvedev will face Finland's Emil Ruusvuori in the next round and could face Canada's Felix Auger-Aliassime in the third round.
