Daniil Medvedev backed out of the Ultimate Tennis Showdown
French coach Patrick Mouratoglou believes that Daniil Medvedev was left heartbroken after his US Open final loss against Novak Djokovic. As per the former tennis professional himself, the loss had taken a heavy toll on the Russian to such an extent that he did not feel like taking up the racket anymore for a while.
