ATP Finals: 3 big players who can stop Novak Djokovic from winning record 6th title
Daniil Medvedev
Novak Djokovic’s dream of becoming the first man to win calendar grand slam was shattered by World No.2 Daniil Medvedev. He took revenge against the Russian in Paris Masters on Sunday. The latter has been a fierce competitor for Djokovic owing to his attacking on-court display right from the word GO. On the other hand, Djokovic is growing older with time and needs time on court before pouncing against the opposition. Medvedev knows how to use both backhand and forehand talent against Djokovic.
