Medvedev is now only two wins away from returning to the top of the men’s rankings after he lost his spot at the top following a stunning third-round loss to France’s Gael Monfils in Indian Wells. He must reach the semi-finals in Miami to reclaim the top spot in the ATP Rankings from Novak Djokovic on 4 April.
The Russian is keen to win his first ATP title in the ongoing calendar year. He has lost the Australian Open and Mexico Open semifinals to Rafael Nadal who is not part of the Miami Open. Thus, it’s a golden chance for Medvedev to win Miami Masters.
