Daniil Medvedev: 'I will be angry if I lose in London! But if I win...'
Daniil Medvedev spoke about what his loss to Jeremy Chardy in Paris means to him. The Russian said: "I will have much more time to prepare for the ATP Finals than if I reached the final here. I know what I can do when I play well. I already rested well, so we will see with my team what we will do in the next days to prepare at our best for the Finals. I am proud of playing because it's my last tournament of the year with the eight best players of the year. It's a dream I will live. If I lose, I will be angry, if I win, I will be happy. Last year Alexander Zverev won on his second appearance. It's a tournament where anything can happen. We are like in the quarter-finals. It will be a nice experience."
Chardy said: "I really liked my victory today because, as we said earlier, what I have accomplished today is that I was level-headed. There were moments where I played very good, very well, and sometimes where I made a lot of mistakes and errors. But I always strive to improve my game, and this is why I continue to practice and to play. Tonight I'm very happy because I had managed to deploy my best tennis. I had winners, but I didn't do outstanding shots either. I managed to be consistent throughout the game, and this is why I had success. I knew that there were things that I could do to change the trend of the match. And then, during the second set, I managed to get the upper hand and to reverse the trend of the match."
