Medvedev picked Djokovic for his backhand which he called one of the best in the history of tennis. Obviously, he is not wrong in that but he also picked Djokovic in terms of mentality saying:
"Because of how he handkes himself in tough situations on the court. He is extraordinary and I try to learn from him."
