On Friday, Medvedev (3rd seed) defeated German Alexander Zverev (6th) in five games in the semi-finals and reached the final of the Australian Open for the third time in his career. Earlier, Sinner became the first finalist of the Melbourne tournament, beating world number one Serbian Novak Djokovic.
– It is difficult to think about the next match after Medvedev’s semi-final. I would like to rejoice longer in Dani’s success, in her ability to withstand the strongest pressures and fight to the end.
Will these qualities be useful in the final? Sinner also has these skills. Yannick is very good, but he has never played a Grand Slam final, so he and Medvedev will have a different approach to the game. The Italian had a good Australian Open, spent much less time in all stages and lost only one set during the entire tournament. Medvedev played three matches in five sets,” Dmitrieva told .
The Australian Open final between Medvedev and Sinner will take place on Sunday and start at 11:30 Moscow time.
