The second racket of the world, Russian Daniil Medvedev, told how he trained with the leader of the ATP rating Serb Novak Djokovic.
The training took place before the tournament in Paris.
– Since I entered the top 10, I have not played with him in training. I didn't know what to expect. I didn't know if he trained a lot or not.
I expected it to be a good workout and it was great. We played for two hours, one set, and it was great. Then we talked for 15-20 minutes, I like talking to him. I think I can say that he is my friend … It is really rare that number 1 and number 2 train together, – said Medvedev.
In the ATP rankings of November 1, Djokovic is on the 1st line with 10,340 points, Daniil Medvedev – the 2nd, with 9540 points.
