Medvedev will look to continue his strong season in Sunday’s final as he aims to challenge Carlos Alcaraz and Djokovic for the No. 1 ATP Ranking this season. The 27-year-old is 28-3 on the season, having won 23 of his past 24 matches. Medvedev, who lifted trophies in Rotterdam, Doha and Dubai during that run, has now advanced to the final at all hard-court ATP Masters 1000 events. He lost to Alcaraz in the championship match in Indian Wells earlier this month.
“I think I made six finals [in a row] in 2019, so I have some margin,” Medvedev said when reflecting on reaching five consecutive finals. “It is a pity it is clay season after, but I am going to try. I am really happy with my results so far but it is not over. Final on Sunday and I have to be at my best to try to win it.
“I have to believe in myself. I know I am capable of winning big titles. I know I can play well and beat anybody. Carlos is on fire right now but you can’t win 100 matches in a row. At one moment someone is going to put the water on the fire. It might be Sinner today, it might be me on Sunday, it might be someone else next tournament. You have to believe in yourself. You have to try your best. I am going to enjoy their match and be prepared for the winner.”
Medvedev will rise to No. 4 in the ATP Rankings if he wins his fifth ATP Masters 1000 title and fourth trophy of the season in South Florida.
