Having come as world number two and top seed at the Miami Open, Russian star Daniil Medvedev on Tuesday said he feels no added pressure and the ranking gives him “some energy boost.”
Last Monday, the Russian became the first player other than Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer or Andy Murray to be ranked in the top two since 2005.
“It’s been already one week, I could feel maybe pressure, and I feel like it just gives me some energy boost,” Medvedev said. “I just want to play better and better to prove to myself I deserve this and hopefully I can show some great tennis in Miami.”
