Daniil Medvedev won his 4th match in Turin over Casper Ruud advancing to the
ATP Finals final and after the match, he was content with the way he played.
It's been a good week for Medvedev in Turin as the Russian is through to the final which was the goal. He will fight today for the trophy that he already won last year so going back-to-back would be a significant thing for Medvedev. His semifinals match against Ruud was a very good one and after the match, Medvedev admitted that he was a bit nervous at the end:
“As soon as you are a set and a break up you feel like you are in control, but that is when the danger is. You need to stay focused and fight for every point. In the last game I had 0/30 on my serve, and until the last point, it is never over. So I am happy I was able to finish it."
The Russian faced different types of players and this event and he was able to rise above all of them. That is something that gives him confidence heading into the final:
“I think all the matches were a great level. Different opponents and different styles. I managed to win all the matches. It was not an easy match [today]. When you are in the final you can’t complain, so I am just looking forward to tomorrow and hopefully, I can have my best match.”
Asked about playing either Djokovic or Zverev he said:
“At this moment we are the Top 3 in the rankings. Just three of us left here, so I am looking forward to a great match tomorrow no matter who I play. I had a few tough matches against Novak lately and a few tough matches against Sascha and one here this week, so it is going to be interesting.”
