An unforgettable feat. That's the only way to define what Learner Tien has achieved in the 2025 Australian Open, being able to deliver outstanding tennis that allowed him to eliminate Daniil Medvedev. Overflowing with charisma and with a very distinctive playing style, the 19-year-old American faced the media and made juicy headlines.

Not even the most optimistic regarding Learner Tien's potential could have imagined such a performance by the North American. At just 19 years old, this talented left-hander has defied logic by defeating Daniil Medvedev in five sets, the current tournament finalist. The playing style and competitive character with which he achieved this are reinforced by his charisma in the press conference, where he delighted everyone by showing up with a pepperoni pizza at 4:00 in the morning.

- Assessment of his feat against Medvedev

"Honestly, I don't think I've fully comprehended the magnitude of what I've accomplished. I had never played such a long match, and I'm happy not to be on the court anymore. Losing the match point and the third set was tough, but I told myself that before the match, I would have been thrilled to be up 2-1. I tried to keep faith in myself and approach the match like any other, eager to have fun and not think ahead," he comments.

- Physical condition after this great battle

"I feel great pride in seeing how my body withstands five-set matches. These are the first ones I've played in my career, and winning them gives me a huge confidence boost. Right now, I have so much adrenaline that I don't know how I'll be tomorrow, I can't imagine it. That's why I decided to have a pepperoni pizza, but with very little, almost all cheese," he humorously points out.

- Motivation from seeing other young players succeeding

"Definitely, it's inspiring to see other guys my age starting to accumulate successes. I'm working hard to join them, and seeing both their achievements and my projection makes me believe I'm on the right path and can achieve significant success," stated Learner Tien, whose next opponent in the 2025 Australian Open will be Corentin Moutet.
