"In the wise words of Mr Medvedev...Money, girls, casino": Novak Djokovic hilariously references Daniil Medvedev in Jaime Faria praise
ATP
Novak Djokovic played himself into form as he took down Jaime Faria 6-1, 6-7, 6-3, 6-2 at the Australian Open to reach the third round for the 17th time and he referenced a certain Daniil Medvedev after he claimed the win.
Djokovic used his 'money, girls, casino' line that Medvedev hilariously said on Tuesday. “Yesterday Medvedev played 5 sets.. In the wise words of Mr. Medvedev.. If the future generation plays this way.. they’re gonna have everything. Money, girls, casino.”
Medvedev said the line after he survived a comeback bid from Kasidit Samrej in the first round of the Australian Open and he said that he could have it all.
“I know that I play better when I play more tennis, so I was like, why play 1hr 30?” he joked.
“I need a minimum three hours at least to feel my shots better, to have a good sensation.
“No, but really, second and third set, I couldn’t touch the ball!”
“Not every match, because I’ve watched his matches and I didn’t see this level. I was surprised!
“But yeah, if he plays like this every match, his life can be good. Money, girls, casino, whatever if he plays like this every match.
“If he doesn’t then he’s not gonna have it. Maybe not in tennis, he’s gonna make it otherwise!”
