Daniil Medvedev said it was “fun to share the court” with Andrey Rublev and expressed hope to meet his fellow compatriot in more big finals.

In the final of an ATP 500 event in Dubai, Medvedev saw off his good friend Rublev 6-2 6-2.

For Medvedev, it was his 18th title.

Also, Medvedev has now won three titles in as many weeks – he previously won Rotterdam and Dubai.

“Fun to share the court with my good friend @AndreyRublev97. Hopefully many more finals to come. Proud of #18 (title). Thank you to all the fans this week for an amazing atmosphere,” Medvedev tweeted.

Medvedev has rediscovered his form once again

After blowing a two-set lead in the 2022 Australian Open final against Rafael Nadal, Medvedev didn’t look like his usual self in the rest of the 2022 season.

At the start of the 2023 season, Medvedev’s problems continued and he suffered a disappointing third-round exit at the Australian Open.

After the Australian Open, Medvedev probably did some analysis regardingĀ his situation and struggles.

Since the Australian Open, Medvedev is 14-0 and has won three titles.

In Dubai, Medvedev admitted that even when wondered why it took him so long to rediscover his best game.

ā€œI don’t know why it took me so long to get back in form, so to speak. It could be different reasons, but I don’t know if there was one key or it was all together. I always worked very hard with my team to be my best, that’s how I am, I always want to be at my best, I always want to win, but for a while it didn’t work. That’s why I deservedly left the top 10, although that was not an easy moment. I managed to get it back right now, just by working hard,” Medvedev explained in Dubai.

Medvedev won’t have much time to rest since he is now set to travel to the United States for the Indian Wells Masters.
