Professional qualities
A few years ago, Medvedev was practically impenetrable on the back line. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult for him to maintain control in the sweepstakes. The reasons are obvious. Firstly, he is annoyed by the new, heavier balls. Secondly, Daniel's pitch stability has disappeared. If double faults used to be his weak point, now there are even more of them due to the sharply dropped percentage of the first serve.
