I saw y'alls exchange in the other thread.

I think he cared very much about winning the match vs Tien, a 19 year old relatively untested at the elite levels of tennis. He didn't give up he lost.

Yes, but it was his second consecutive five set match. Something is not right with him.

Medvedev racked up a possible $200,000 in fines plus the cost of a a net camera he went HAM on with his racket.

He certainly didn't give himself the appropriate time to acclimate.

His wife did just have a baby in early January, so there really wasn't much of an option to get to Australia early.

Total fine was $76,000--$10,000 for the camera incident, and $66,000 for antics during his match with Tien.

Tien is a lot better than people realize.

Medvedev is in a funk, but that was not nearly as bad a loss as the rankings indicate.

Thanks, Nelslus! :D
Uhm, Medvedev has not done much in quite a while. And I say he is not the only one that is washed up already.

I think you have to be a champion first to be able to be washed up later.

Don't agree. Tsitsipas, for example, made two slam finals. A lot was expected from him. Sakkari was the same, although she never made a final. I think the washed up tag comes to everybody, whatever you achieved.
Just that when you are Adrian Mannarino, no one cares. Even if Nelslus says not even he cares :)

Sloane Stephens - she does not seem to care about putting in the work, just showing up and getting her 1st round check now.

Not for much longer now (out of the top 100).
