Yeah, Sinner played probably one of the best matches he's played ever, just Medvedev went God Mode in the final 2 sets

​@@jayzerbeam9733 sinner played a great first set, but he couldn't keep up that pace for the rest of the match. He made some serious progress, but he still has work to do to reach that level

He’s the definition of a counterpuncher, what an ugly game to watch

It was like Alien vs Predator battle.

@@francescozappi8747 he doesn't have weapons like David Ferre

Yeah but don't you think that at the time of hitting groundstokes crosscourt which pushed Medvedev to the limit Sinner should run to the net? Like RF. Medvedev pushed back like octopus because there was space for that. Easier said than done but still better than dropshots when you're breathing with your armpits.

As a Djokovic I'm concerned haha, the tour will be a lot more interesting if Med's back in form.

@@tanmaybam as a Djoković myself as well, I am quite worried to see Daniil in such good form

@@tanmaybamhi Djokovic, how are you?

@@diptodeepmajumder9746 you've nothing to be worried, he was in great form in 2021, and won USO just because Novak was under pressure to win calendar slam. And I'm Med's fan. When Novak is at his best, he's unbeatable at hard (now only Rafa could have a chance, if he didn't have health problems ).

@@ediccartman7252 Where Rafa have a chance except clay against Novak?

Have you seen his match against Djokovic in Astana last year? It was even better quality.

@@Petrarka17 Massive choke by Medvedev on that one. Could have easily won but also retired

the tour becomes much more interesting with medvedev back in form and alcaraz hope to see kyrgios ready for indian wells in march too

If slogging from deep behind the base line is out of this world..........

He got revenge in AO final last month.

@Rafa undisputed Goat I’m a Rafa fan but realistically I think he won’t. Unfortunately injuries are catching up to him.

@Rafa undisputed Goat I don’t know about this year though it’s be nice though for him to win but his not exactly 100%

Other one is now also slam winner after defeated this same guy(Meddy) in the AO final last month.

Astana against Djokovic?

Rafa the dirty cheater is out- lost in the 2nd round at AO- should never have been in the finals, funny how he fakes injury every time he can't win- the bastard!

It is also an achivement and a valid strategy to exhaust an opponent. Medy did great by doing that. Or like Agassi answered when he was asked once if he just won a particular game because his opponent had cramps: "I earned those cramps!" (by pushing the opponent over the court left and right)

Well, their matches are usually pretty boring because they both defend a lot and bet on consistency, there's a lack of variety, even if it's very demanding physically, those are not the best match up at all :/

@@ijump-bounce2283that’s true, Djoker=mayweather =no.1=boring to watch；Fed=pacquiao=no.2or3=creative and aggressive entertainment

@@user-cn1lp6vz6p Federer is more entertaining overrall but when you have players like Federer or Wawrinka or Nadal it's great to watch against Djokovic, and Djokovic's game was very enjoyable in this AO 2023, sometimes he's super agressive like in AO 2023 or against Nadal in AO 2019 etc or RG 2021 against Nadal.

@@ijump-bounce2283 bullshit You're wrong about Djokovic's tennis🎾💪🏻🇷🇸 *Your point about Djokovic focusing on "not missing" and a supposed lack of variety are the classic misunderstanding and oversimplification of his game.* He's not AT ALL just trying not to miss, he's using shot selection, placement and depth to force his opponent out of position, forcing him to hit harder and harder shots until he misses. *Djokovic's ability to hit deep returns, deep & potent balls, great angles exactly where & when he thinks will hurt your game the most is outstanding* He doesn't just wait for unforced errors from his opponents and supposedly to not lose a point...that's really caricatural Foremost, the main thing for me was seeing Novak play in real life. The TV and the camera angles can’t really portray what this man is doing on court. Depth and movement is something you can surely notice, but the change of pace, slice variation and topspin change. On TV some shots look identical when in reality there is so much variation on bounce, spin, depth…

@@ijump-bounce2283 *Novak Djokovic is the ultimate strategic guide.* 🧑🏻🇷🇸🎾🧠💪🏻 Novak Djokovic is one if not the most precise player on the tour and as such, he consistently executes plays with pinpoint accuracy. These are some of Novak's favorite plays that he uses time and time again to dominate players 👇 Backhand Cross + Backhand DTL (Down The Line) Backhand Cross + Forehand inside in (Federer struggles to deal with it) Forehand spin DTL + Forehand Cross Forehand Cross + Forehand Inside Out Forehand Cross + Backhand Cross And so on Novak often uses multiple plays within a single point and transitions between plays very well, making him less predictable while adding variety to his game *Amazing and smart talent, like a cross between chess and a boxing punch combination* Novak's technique should be observed and taught to youngsters for decades to come. Make your opponent move and punish in the clear corner. Tennis is so simple ideally but it takes a genius to perfect those thing in pinpoint fashion. It always makes me smile when Djokovic haters claim that his tennis is boring. 😆 Certainly not because you are not personally enjoyed by his tennis that everyone share the same feelings. You can only speak for yourself 😉

improving? really? the dude is a grand slam champion lmao

@@PretentiousStuff the last few months were horrible for him.I only mentioning it...

@Rafa undisputed Goat 😅 dont you think you're totally irrelevant here ??? My goodness, Rafafans all seem like they are 4 years old

definitely, He could even retake the top 5, with wins/finals in the US masters, or USopen

Will see if he’s in good form

Won't be

Sinner plays well when there's no pressure. But as soon as he's under it he buckles

@@robatkinson2125 if you look in atp site he’s literally 2nd in pressure points last year

It's sad he has so little to show for it. I feel he would have won the USO final easily if he'd taken those match points against Carlitos in the semi

Its really fascinating to watch... Med's style is a nightmare for most of the ATP players (esp the next gen)... he dosent miss much and mixes his rhythm, spin and/or pace every other shot and places it deep but with some margin.

Februar Not ?

@@Ushgulubululum Inappropriate joke. I just assumed that the sentence "May 2023 bring more victories" should be understood as "Let 2023 bring more victories".

@@19shg67 sorry my english is Not so good im from Germany . But now i understand what you mean . 🤷‍♂️

I agree with you. A very serious player but a light hearted side to him that is so likeable. Hope he has a great season........

@@kevinhickey3515: He doesn't blame anyone, not even himself it seems. Just accepts the stumble and carries on.

Игра была бомбическая! Ураааааа! Даня возвращается

Отличная работа осьминога💪

Med is not an athlete at all . That's why he's a counter-attack player , just hits the balls in long rallies and then at some point makes winner by 1-2 incredible hits. Today he was lucky because his opponent isn't an athlete either, and he also played his 8th match in a row.

Sinner isn't as good as you think

@@robatkinson2125 um yes he is

Your remark just relates to the first set. J. Sinner was exhausted for the 2nd and 3rd sets.

I want Dinner to win but he lost I have to cool myself so I am going to watch Australian open 2014 semis which Federer lost to straight sets 😤😤😤 To feel happy and better I can't take pressure like that

@@jpdrgvii6844 exhausted rlly? this is a best of three set match and u think after one set the 21 year old guy is exhausted. How about grand slams?🤣

You are right! In my opinion it’s not good. I prefer neutral comment

on clay or grass sinner wins

At the moment, probably only Nole can defeat Medvedev indoor.

@@HermanWaldorf and Kyrgios

@@HermanWaldorf alcaraz want's to talk

@@cpt-r.federer5940 I don't think what Alcaraz showed at USO is going to beat this Medvedev we see today.

@Rafa undisputed Goat Rafa and Alcaraz in the final. I think Rafa will best him but by 2024 Alcaraz is going to be hard to beat

would you call him an iron curtain? ;)

why would you say that? lol. He should be a force for another 15 years.....and maybe/someday the GOAT? potential is there.

No he won't.. he's not good enough...
