The Open, Coincidence, and History
Daniil Medvedev will try to win his first major title on Sunday when he plays Novak Djokovic in the US Open final.
Carol points out that two Medvedevs were involved in the murder of Tsar Nicholas II. They were unrelated. Mikhail Aleksandrovich Medvedev (Kudrin) (September 30, 1891 - January 13, 1964) was a Russian revolutionary, Chekist, direct participant in the execution of the last Russian Emperor Nicholas II, his family, and close associates in the Ipatiev House in Yekaterinburg on the night of July 17, 1918.(wiki) and Pavel Spiridonovich Medvedev (Russian: Павел Спиридонович Медведев; 1888 – 12 March 1919) was a Bolshevik revolutionary, head of the external guard of the Ipatiev House in Yekaterinburg, a direct participant in the execution of the last Russian Emperor Nicholas II, his family, and those close to him on the night of 17 July 1918. (wiki).
So, does Danill have the heart of an assassin? Will he topple the current tennis tsar?
