a Gaston Gaudio moment lol

What does "default me" mean in this case ?

@@julienoliveira3062 it means to pretty is when a player chooses not to or isn’t allowed to continue playing a match. Usually you see defaults when a player is injured so they default and the opponent wins the match. Daniil is saying that because he hates playing on clay😂

@@julienoliveira3062it means to get rid of me

Very creative I must say

hes so cute

that was the one that cracked me up the most

not too hard if tennis tv already uploads highlights of his matches isn't it ?

🤣🤣🤣

Bublik trying hard not to die right there xD

Who did he say that to?

yh they missed that lol

@@Forever20young To the chair umpire when he was playing against Tsitsipas during the semifinal at AO 2022. Tsitsipas' dad kept talking in Greek throughout the match, until Medvedev had enough, and during a changeover, he called the umpire out about letting it go on.

for me it's "man, you better shut your f*** up, okay?"

@@elisecode2212 he's a small kid who doesn't know how to fight

That was funny classy respectful and all you can ask from runner up

Please default him. Please

Your hopes have been fulfilled.

Until the end of the match, the crowd was discouraging him. But in the end, the crowd understands him from the final speech he gave. But definitely a bad day for him from the crowd on a slam final.

Watching that video never gets old.

With Jim Coorrier , yeah

he is coming back

Dang, you really wished this into reality!

@@kevinl1299 I wish it were bigger events…but yes, you’re welcome :)

@@anemicroyalty8764 he won against Novak and three titles in a row

He's back!!!!

Yes sir

And indeed he did

I guess, that russians education is very exten. Russians read a lot, I think they read more than anyone else the world

I admire him, amazing guy 😊

And he did!

Way better than Marat ...

Yes, 🙌 ! Marat and Daniil are very charismatic and charming 😊

You better...😂that exchange is my favorite! Miami 2018. I was hoping to see that again, but...that's ok bc there are so many other good DM quotes.

@@johnt.4947 I was waiting for it. Thought It'd be in here too 😅

"Thank you very much, I don't know what else to say, i'm stuck (speechless)"

Сказал, спасибо Даше, это его жена, а дальше- меня зажало, тоесть говорить не могу.

When asked about that little speech during the press conference, he said that he's usually pretty good about saying things that just come to him, but at that moment, he just basically got flustered (emotional), and didn't know what else to say. (Since then, he's been asked a few times about the baby, and you can tell he loves being a father, and is crazy in love with that little girl.)

@@elizabethb132 thank you :)

1) He said he felt a pop in his leg, and that's why he stopped in Astana. Granted, he probably should have taken a MTO, but he didn't. If he hadn't gotten hurt, I think he would have won. That was the best he had played all year. Like some burden was suddenly lifted off his shoulders.2) 2022 he had a hell of a year. Loses the AO, in a very hostile environment, which he could have won. The day he becomes #1 the country where he was born invades its neighbor. He's playing with a hernia, and finally has to have surgery to fix it, and misses 6 weeks. His wife is pregnant, and they never announce it until the baby is born. Most likely to keep people from harassing her. Through all this, he manages to make several finals, and wins 2 tournaments. 3) Yeah, I think the war has done a number on him. He left Russia when he was 17. 10 years ago with his parents. He has said that France/Monaco is home now. Yet, he still feels some loyalty to the country where he was born, and he and his wife still have family. What's he suppose to do? (As much as I would never want to go back to my hometown to live, it's still the place where I grew up.) The pressure last year on him had to be enormous. Every story had his name and picture as if he was the only player in that same situation. If he says the wrong thing or would decide to make a change of citizenship now, he would most likely make the list as an enemy of Russia. 4) He has a great memory. Some day, I hope he writes a book about 2022. But, here's hoping for a great 2023. He's my favorite player.

I agree. They must feel adrift, traveling around the world and probably getting unfriendly reception here and there, yet feeling impotent not having really a way to be proactive as they're with their hands tied basically. I have a russian friend who got beaten up in his hometown for showing his anti-government and anti-war views. A fellow citizen snitched him to the authorities. He had to flee the country.

They won't take him off on the first place, why should they?

He's made the quarter finals there now. He's learning to love it.

RG is not Wimby which took the russian players off the roster but didn't return the trillions of dollars dumped in their economy from dirty russian oligarchs money. Neither did they send the thousands of their relatives living in London home.

You are a small cat

@@SDvids who doesn't know how to fight

Far from that. Medvedev's talent and mentality is insane. Obviously gonna win more Slams, on the hard courts, to anyone paying attention, still only just turning 27. It's crazy he's dropped as low as 12 but I'd be straight up shocked if he doesn't soon come back to top 5 and maybe even return to the top spot eventually, at least the top 2 or 3. Rios is a far better choice and even he's overhated as a #1 but I'd take Meddy over Rios for sure. Meddy is a solid player and was playing amazing tennis to earn the spot

​​​@@AnthonyHirsch да эти рейтинги достаточно условные и иногда, не отражают таланта и игры игрока. Я думаю, что он будет ещё побеждать, он талантливый, умный, неординарный человек.

2019 He made 6 consecutive finals including the US Open. He's made $27.7 million in prize money alone. He's earned his points and money like anyone else, but not too shabby for the worst no.1 player ever. I think there's a lot of players former and current who would love to have his career and that title.
