. With a 7-5, 6-3 victory against Jannik Sinner, Medvedev improved to 24-1 in his past five events, which have reaped four titles. After falling to Carlos Alcaraz two weeks ago in the Indian Wells final, the fourth seed was rock-solid against Sinner as he frustrated the Italian with his calculated baseline game. Medvedev is now 6-0 in his ATP Head2Head against Sinner, also having beaten the Italian in the Rotterdam final in February.
“I’m really happy. Today was a tough match. It was probably the hottest day and the most humid during the day,” Medvedev said after winning his fifth ATP Masters 1000 title and 19th career tour-level crown. “It was not easy conditions. I don’t know if Jannik had a small injury or cramp. I was also struggling, tried not to show it.
“I haven’t won’t such a big title in probably a year and a half,” he added, not having tasted Masters 1000 glory since he won Toronto in 2021. “At the end I was quite shaky. Not even tight, because I’m not scared to win. But still the hands get a little shaky so the serve is a little bit tougher… I managed to get myself together and close the match.”
Medvedev has now won five of the six hard-court ATP Masters 1000s and reached the final in the other (Indian Wells). The 27-year-old has also contested the final at both hard-court Grand Slams, winning the 2021 US Open. His success on the surface has also extended to the ATP Finals, where he won the 2020 title.
Medvedev’s four tour-level titles this season match his career-best mark from both 2019 and 2021, giving him a strong opportunity to set a new high.
