US Open final will be exciting, Russian Daniel Medvedev will have to fight with the “great and terrible” Novak Djokovic, Olympic champion Elena Vesnina told .
In the semifinals, Medvedev defeated Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz with a score of 7:6 (7:3), 6:1, 3:6, 6:3. The Russian will play against Djokovic in the deciding match. This match will be the 15th between the tennis players. Medvedev currently has five head-to-head victories, while 23-time Grand Slam winner Djokovic has nine. The Russian beat the Serbian in straight sets in the 2021 US Open final.
— Expectations for the finale are only the best. Daniil reaches the US Open final for the third time. You can see how comfortable he feels in New York, how the conditions and fans suit him. Daniil, it seems to me, is the only tennis player who can turn the pain of fans against him in his favor and get something positive out of it. It’s a unique quality. In the final, a blockbuster awaits us: the great and terrible Novak Djokovic will face Medvedev, who will try to win the 24th Grand Slam and go down in history as the most successful tennis player. There’s a lot at stake. I think both tennis players will be nervous. Whoever manages anxiety best will win.
During this tournament, Daniil has already defeated several troublesome opponents: De Minaur, Rublev, Alcaraz. When you defeat such troublesome and dangerous opponents, it of course inspires you and gives you strength and faith that you can beat everyone. But Djokovic is a completely different player, another era. It will be very difficult. Daniil beat him in the final, he has this experience. “I really hope Daniil can win his second Grand Slam,” Vesnina told .
