But Medvedev is truly all over... one of the players with the most variety since he wins by moving the opponent around mostly. Plus he's injured (shoulder I believe).
Both Medvedev and Rublev are allergic to the net. But I think Medvedev is more open to add dimension to his game than Rublev. Plus he has better movement than Rublev for a player his height. He also defends the ball better than Rublev. I think he has a bit more chance winning 250/500 than Rublev. I am afraid Rublev is on a downward spiral if he doesn’t reinvent his game. He has made improvements on his serves over the years but other than that, it’s pretty much the same. Even that backhand down the line shot has been put in the back burner lately. He is not taking any risks/changes since the US open. He is in a weird state of mind. Perhaps a coaching change can steer him in a new direction. Both players are stuck. But Medvedev was number 1 and had won a slam before. It’s what millions of players have dreamed to achieve. His best buddy Rublev has yet to achieve neither. Sad, he has so much potential. Just let go of those ranking points and try something new for the next month or so. That temporary dip may yield dividend later on.

Maybe it's staged for entertainment, you can never tell, in any case, he's probably upset Nadal retired, and did him dirty, after stealing his AO22 finals away, I'd be mad too, personally, I'd try and talk Nadal out of retirement, so he can avenge his loss in 2025, and hopefully beat Nadal with the same Umpire- to rub it in!
For context, Alexi was screaming because the linesman absolutely screwed him over on the break point before the 4-4all one shown. The linesman called a slow lob from Popyrin out and he had to replay the break point which he should've won. Alexi did extremely well not to tilt but that's why he was so fired up at the end.
Thanks for providing that context! I thought he was addressing that screaming to Meddy, hence the cold handshake from his side. But I guess there was much more to it.
@@lewisallen5849 Dodgy line calls will be a thing of the past , next year the ATP is bringing in VAR and getting rid of ( Imo not before time) line judges...... I mean Hawkeye is never wrong....
To each their own. With all the stories of bad lines calls screwing players over this year, especially on crucial points, it's easy to experience a really bad call, not unfortunate, just genuinely bad call since it was a slow lob, and be furious you're next to be screwed over. At least they won't have to worry about any players screaming at them soon - incompetent calls like this put themselves out of a job.
Daniil is one of, if not, my favourite player, and there was a time when he would barely lose any games to someone outside the top 10 when playing on a hard court, especially indoors. I hope he finds his form again. He needs to sort out his serve, but I worry the issue is more his mentality. It seems he has other priorities nowadays and he's intelligent enough to know that he won't win many more titles with Sinner and Alcaraz playing at a level that he probably isn't capable of reaching. How much more can Medvedev really improve over his previous best?
Кроме Синнера и Алькараса его уже обыгрывают спортсмены много ниже рангом(((. Игра его ухудшилась или игроки приспособились, а сам Медведев не меняется в игре.
@@4zafinc Bro,, he's not short of breadNbutter , shoulder injuries can be career threatening even ending if it's serious. ... And today he looked seriously hampered by it , and going to watch his post match Media interview...
Re: the handshake. This was a contentious match. (They didn't show the part where a line call was wrong and Popyrin threw a tantrum and said he didn't want to play anymore). I've never liked Popyrin's attitude. I remember when Shelton beat him at the AO in 2023 and he made the comment that Popyrin was "bullying" people around on the court. I don't usually root for Meddy, but I definitely was here. I can't believe he didn't beat him.
Popyrin is always fair, honest, and upbeat from what I've seen of him. I don't believe he'd bully anyone. Not his style. As for Shelton, does anyone really care what he says?
Why do you people keep making up lies about Popyrin. You people are doing the same thing to Zheng Qinwen as well and it's honestly ridiculous. Popyrin is unproblematic and doesn't bother anyone. He doesn't do anything controversial, he just goes out there and plays his heart out and shows emotions here and there like every other player. There was never any of this hate for Popyrin until he beat Novak at the US open. Now all of a sudden he is "bully" and has an "attitude".
not a terrible handshake to be honest he had a solid hold of hand, looked Popyrin in the eyes, and smiled that's a lot more than many other salty players and WTA players
Oh, go away. Not everybody has to hug and talk at the net. A simple handshake and acknowledgement is fine. Take me back to the days when this wasn't an issue.
@lucaantonelli1511 I think the potential and ability was there all along. Now the self-belief is finally happening. I love watching Popyrin and wish him all the best ❤️💯
Well, that was a little interesting handshake by Meddy! Lol. But I think his shoulder is still bothering him somewhat. Great job Popy! One of my favs on tour! 🎉👏🎾👍
14 double faults, almost 4 games given away, and its not even Christmas😅 And still Medvedev could have won the match.. If his serve comes back to like that Us open final level against Djokovic, he will be fine! If he can't get it back for some reason, he could drop down the rankings pretty fast! Considering how many good players are coming up.. Like Draper, Fils, an Perricard to name a few...
He was screaming at one of the umpires. In the previous point popyrin saved a breakpoint after a very long rally but the umpire called a vert slow ball out when it was blatantly in. Despite putting away a smash the point had to be replayed. Popyrin was swearing a lot when the chair umpire was explaining it to him. He basically got gassed by the fact he won the replayed point so he gave it to the umpire
Not surprising Medvedev lost. His confidence and serve are missing. His practices were just okay but his ground game was better (normal). I think his serve has let him down in important points which had usually not been the case in the pass. Also, Popyrin is a good player than can beat you if you don’t show enough variety or hit balls that are heavy or change directions with pace. Good job Popyrin for staying in the match
o think that after the hard losses against alcaraz and sinner, medvedev started to change his game. He always was known for being the octopus, for getting the speed from the opponents balls. However, trying to achieve the level of pace that sinner and alcaraz have, he started to miss more and his game started to fall apart. This specific game the serve was bad, but a lot of unforced errors as well.
Medvedev had a window from his 2019 U.S.Open run through the 2024 Australian Open. I think that window is likely closed. Imagine the scar tissue from being up two sets to love against Rafa in 2022 and Sinner two years later, and losing both? He’s 1-6 overall and that has to be maddening.
Popyrin was coming up with some insanely difficult volleys. Medvedev is increasingly facing guys who are willing to finish points at the net and can pull off the very tough volleys off low shots but he can’t counter that because his own volleys are not that good.
Tie breaks are so close,in the end it's a shame when tie-breaker splits the better of the 2 and the other player has to find what could have gone right to seal the deal.Having said that Daniil is finding it hard lately and has mixed results since Wimbledon loss.Popryn on the other hand has surprised quite a few with some big wins.Interesting if Popryn can ho deep however it is a bit unlikely.
When you are 1.98 cm, you are supposed to be at least a top 10 player serve-wise if you want to beat the best and maintain a top 5 level. But Daniil is not even close to top 30 in the serve department. Even guys’ serve like Ruud and Rublev is way more effective if we take the stats. He has to figure it out immediately. You can’t be that tall and serve so mediocre. Daniil, on the other hand, has to acknowledge that and make an effort to fix and make those tweaks that rather than denying it.
Such an underwhelming season for Medvedev. If I had to bet, I would say he will struggle to remain in the top 10 in 2025. Sinner, Alcaraz, and Djokovic will remain in the top 5. Everybody else is going to fight to death to get a top 10 place.
@russianmegabot5272 In 2024 he didn't play in Cincinnati, Canada, and Paris. Didn't win any M1000 or GS but, yet, remains in the top 5. It doesn't seem his 2025 season will be worse than the current one.
@@Molloy1951 yep. This years Focus was on the olympics, lets See what He is planning to do next year. I Just want to See him winning one Last big final
bro Medvedev at some point in his career decided to play such a flat game for no reason. When he faces players who make a lot of unforced errors he manages to win because he only hits the ball slowly into the other court without ever looking for a winner. When he meets guys who look for winners and make few mistakes he no longer wins a match. Why Daniil?
He always played like that, but now that the courts are getting sped up he cant win by pushing and playing passively as he used to, there are simply too many talented players coming up who play agressively so the match is never on his racket
Don't worry, it's just a normal even-numbered year for Medvedev. If you look at the stats, 2019, 2021, and 2023 were all considerably better than 2020, 2022, and 2024. He'll be back in 2025 💪
djokovic since yesterday guaranteed the atp finals in turino with 3910 points because only tstitsipas , de minaur and dimitrov can catch him ,if tstsipas win paris he will becomes 3965 points BUT if dimitrov reached the final he can reached only 3795 points ...and when de minaur reached the semifinal he had 3945 points. ONLY 2 player can catch novak not 3. But i dont think djokovic will play in torino..,.,.THE PLAYER must qualifited after paris masters tournament.

Not much love between the Russian and the Australian Russian!!!😂
Danil's game has become very passive too predictable and I think he really need to change something up specially with his return positioning.
But that racket catch attempt was hilarious 😂
Never seen so many double fauls in a match. Why did Medvedev do anything to lose this match?
It's probably due to his shoulder injury
@@GCKuss23 Maybe, but if you have a shoulder injury, you don't keep trying to do aces with the second shot. Nonsense.
Those GS chokes and losses killed Meds career
Popyrin is screaming in the end like a psycho. Look at his veins on the neck
Bravo pour Popyrin
Je pense que le russe est un vrai malade mental, il ne gagnera jamais un autre GC vu ses gestes malsains et son comportement impulsif sur le court ✍🎾🎾
It's a hat-trick opening round loss in Paris for Medvedev
2022 - Alex De Minaur ❌️
2023 - Grigor Dimitrov ❌️
2024 - Alexei Popyrin ❌️
2:43 Goosebumps ❤
Meddy needs to go on a retreat and get his shit together, else he is done
Popyrin Profi TENNIS player ~ 7 years!
1 x Masters 1000 won.
...and that's infinitely more Masters 1000 events than the vast majority of professional tennis players. What's your point??
@SoftwareEngineering 3000 Oh, shut up 😠
Why Popyrin so angry/mad after winning a point?
Because the line judge screwed him over, and he had to replay a point he should've won outright 😮
Sinner broke this man
Ese es mi popy crjo dude debi apostar por ti arrugue
Разошёлся Попыр в посл вр...!
Nice match Popyrin.Future top 10?
In current era that's hardly an achievement.
Not a chance
Let’s go Popyrin
How can they play on a badminton court?
Ozie ozie ozie
Thrilling? Really? That looked pretty scrappy to me.
