Daniil Medvedev called Rafael Nadal’s performance ‘unreal’ after losing to the Spaniard in the Australian Open final. Medvedev was aiming to win his second successive grand slam title after winning the US Open in 2019 and vowed to only ‘play for himself’.
The Russian also revealed his frustrations at the Australian Open crowd saying they were ‘disrespectful’ after showing overwhelming support for Nadal throughout the match.
Nadal came from two sets down to beat Medvedev and win his record breaking 21st grand slam title.
