5. 1 Same last name as Dmitry Medvedev

2- Russians, as a generalization,' just a generalization now, are quite racist, anti-gay, you name it..

[malaise]

6. That's a former Russian PM

I don't know enough about them to generalize but this one is already an offensive youngster - gave fans a middle finger after he was booed.

The other Medvedev in tennis was Andrei - from the Ukraine

7. Why?

8. Uh............... I didn;t expect that question....

Because men are ALWAYS(almost) last in sports that have a men's and women's competition.
It is demeaning to women

Also, men start all the wars..
