After Zverev attack: Medvedev hits back violently
The match was a highlight of the 2023 tennis season so far. And the aftermath is also tough: after Alexander Zverev fired drastic poisoned arrows in the direction of Daniil Medvedev , he immediately shot back in the press conference after his defeat against Holger Rune in the quarterfinals. Also with very distinctive words.

It was already the witching hour in the Principality when, after his extremely unfortunate defeat against Daniil Medvedev, Alexander Zverev described him as one of the "most unfair players on the tour" and really let off steam towards the Russian.
Unsurprisingly, after his clear defeat against Holger Rune the next day, the accused was asked directly about the German's statements. And what does Medvedev do? appeased? Does the fire take out the argument? Are you kidding me? Are you serious when you say that. Medvedev did not mince his words in the press conference and took a clear position. When asked about Zverev's statements, the Russian said: "Sascha lives in his own world and when he loses you can find 25 interviews in which he says strange things. If he says that someone is playing unfairly, he should himself take a look in the mirror."
This feud seems far from over - and the next time the two eccentrics match, every change of sides, every toilet break, every word will be scrutinized.
Please have the popcorn ready for the next round...
