Daniil Medvedev indeed lost the first set of his match at the ATP Finals against Taylor Fritz by committing three consecutive double faults.
Medvedev’s serving performance has been under scrutiny recently, especially following a match where he had one of his worst double faulting performances against Alexei Popyrin in Paris. This recent set loss underscores the serving woes that have occasionally plagued Medvedev, particularly when his serve, which should be a weapon, fails him at critical moments.
Eventually Medvede lost the match 6-4 6-3.
