To me, it’s becoming more apparent with these conditions that the heavy, straight hitters are going to have a much better chance than usual this year. Guys like Medvedev, Wawrinka, and Schwartzman could be very tough outs, even against guys like Djokovic and Nadal. Those guys can only play defense for so long without as much spin on the balls to help them. Especially Nadal with all of his normal topspin and high bounces he relies on here.

Stan:
“The current conditions are an advantage for me. Slow and heavy, it’s good for my game. I have enough power to put weight in each ball. I know that if I play well, I can beat everybody”

Dan Evans:
"I think the balls are the biggest thing. Maybe they got it a little wrong. It's tough to get that ball to go anywhere. Some of those balls we were using, you wouldn't give to a dog to chew."

Medvedev:
“Me, I like the balls. Tennis is a fun and interesting sport. Sometimes one player doesn’t like something, but another player will like it. So far, I love it.”
