What should you do when you face the great Roger Federer for the first time? How about doing what Daniil Medvedev did, which is to hit one of the most incredible volleys of the 2018 tennis season. This stab volley by the Russian, during Federer’s 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 win over the World No.22, was so darn good that even a perplexed Roger Federer couldn’t help applauding.



Go to :31 on the video for the perfect angle: It shows just how nasty the spin on this ball was.
