Daniil Medvedev said, shared that moving on from his Australian Open final loss to Jannik Sinner was “easy.” This was different from his feelings two years ago when he lost to Rafael Nadal in the same stage.
Medvedev faced setbacks in both the 2022 and 2024 Australian Open finals, losing despite having a two-set lead. He expressed ongoing disappointment about his performance against Nadal but feels positive about his recent match against Sinner.

“To be honest, ‘get over’ was quite easy. As I said after that match, I felt like it would be easy because I played a great tournament in this time, I played a good final.”
The fourth-ranked tennis player in the world, Daniil Medvedev from Russia, will be participating in his first tournament since the Australian Open this week in Dubai. He holds the title of defending champion in this event.
Medvedev chose not to defend his title in Doha last week due to various physical issues, including problems with his foot, adductor, and shoulder. However, he now feels prepared to return to the court after spending the last seven days training in Dubai.
Around this time last year, Medvedev was on a remarkable 19-match winning streak. He achieved this feat with three consecutive title victories in Rotterdam, Doha, and Dubai, along with a runner-up finish in Indian Wells.
A quick elimination from the 2023 Australian Open and a brief stint outside the top 10 rankings served as motivation for his impressive winning streak a year ago. Medvedev acknowledges that he feels “definitely different” as he arrives in Dubai this time around.
