Medvedev speaks : " Novak was the same when I was 480 in the world as #1, Feel sorry about US OPEN

[Wesling]

“I like when Novak wins Slams, if of course he’s not playing me in one of the rounds,” Medvedev told eurosport.com on Thursday following his 6-3 6-2 quarter-final win over Borna Coric in Dubai.
“I like many things about Novak, he was so kind to me since I was a kid, since I first met him when I was 480 in the world. He was always the same, no matter if I’m No.1 in the world or No.480 and I give him a lot of respect for this.
“At the same time, I have my name a little bit in the history, I didn’t let him win the calendar-year Grand Slam and I feel really sorry for him because I would, in a way, like him to do it.

Goat recognize Goat!

I have total respect for this point. People want to present Novak Djokovic as a devil or a saint. He's just a human being like the rest of us. Sometimes he is a total bonehead. Sometimes he is a really nice guy. Just like me. Just like my friends. Just like each person in my family.

I like Djoker and meddy relationship! They got lots of respect for each other.

Med is different, on court and in front of the mike. In a tennis landscape dominated by standardization - both in style of play and style of interview - he definitely stands out.

These comments are fine after winning the match and NOT after losing.

Just like pretty much most of us.
