Medvedev

Medvedev has set his sights on replacing Djokovic as the number one at the ATP, and if he can't "catch up with Djokovic this year," then he hopes to achieve his goals "sometime in the future."

Djokovic has been at number one in attp since August 2020 and has won three of the four Grand Slams this year, and he is likely to end the 2021 season with year-end world number one spot.

Although the Russian is only 1,800 points behind Djokovic, given the adjustment in the ATP ranking due to the coronavirus pandemic, his chances of overtaking the Serbian this year are almost impossible. However, if he fails this year, this dream will not go away.

"Becoming world number one is still our goal, and while Novak hasn't played a few Masters games this year, he has won three Grand Slams and made it to his fourth final, so it's logical that he's still world number one." It would be great if I could catch up with him this year, and I'll try if I can't. ”
