Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal told Daniil Medvedev may ‘do something big’ at French Open | Tennis | Sport
McEnroe feels that this lack of fitness is telling when he takes to the Roland Garros surface, having played just one clay match in preparation. He said: “It’s like it hurts him. He’s not as adept or accepting of the situation on the clay. You know, as I mentioned earlier; the two-handed backhand – it’s a great shot, but it’s flat – so I think guys coming up against him can take advantage of that.
“Where would you rather hit a ball if you’re a player? Here [at waist height], or if Rafa’s playing, you’re hitting it around here [at head height]. I think that the spin has more of an impact on the clay. But you know, some of this won’t matter, obviously, because Daniil Medvedev is an incredible player. Why in god’s name couldn’t he play better on clay? I think he can; it’s just a mindset. You’ve just got to dig in and do whatever it takes.”
