Daniil Medvedev arrived at US Open 2019 on a roll, ranked No. 5 in the world and considered one of the favorites to win the final major of the year. Things turned in his third-round match with Feliciano Lopez, when his on-court behavior drew the wrath of the Louis Armstrong crowd. The 23-year-old relished the villain role and encouraged the fans to boo him.
But US Open fans are not easily fooled by theatrics and can appreciate good tennis when they see it. So after Medvedev dispatched of Stan Wawrinka in the quarterfinals and Grigor Dmitrov in the semis, Medvedev won over the Arthur Ashe Stadium crowd. This set up a mouth-watering final with Rafael Nadal, one of the greatest - and most popular - champions the sport has known.

Medvedev is that one guy at school everyone hates that aces every test.
Remember when he flipped off the crowd lmao
His future is big. He’ll be the best one day.... because of your energy guys!!
Lol yea, big respect to him for making it all the way to the finals with so many people against him.
2021 medvedev 🏆
He has the best 2019 year along with Rafa and Nole
Thiem’s 2019 was better I think. Maybe Federer’s too.
@@michelegavelli2479 he is 4th after this three
Sethupathy vj i think both thiem and Federer had a better season, so I think he’s 5th. Maybe 4th tied with thiem.
bogdan Petrovic federer has to be a bit over them. Has 1 slam final, 1 slam semifinal, 1 slam QF, 2 atp 500 titles, 1 master title, 1 master final, wtf semis. I think medvedev is fourth tied with thiem
@@michelegavelli2479 nah
The game against Lopez was amazing.
I can't wait :))) my favourite player :))
Do you think we coud have the full match US Open 2019 Medvedev against Wawrinka please ??? (sorry for my english :)))
Great idea! We'll see what we can do!
@@usopen thank you so much :))))
@@usopen honestly, the full feli lopez match, including on court interview, would be the real treat... please?
I am a huge fan of Daniil Medvedev since us open 2019 and continuing to be until the end of his career
The more you do this, the more I will win 😅 and that was real
He'll be the next Murray/Djokovic
Ishaan Gupta nah I don’t think so, he had that short period of dominance, but I think it’s ending, he won no matches in the nitto finals, and lost to Wawrinka in the 4th round of Australia open.
Asdfswer thats just two tournaments
@@asdfswer4657 he just won paris and won nitto beating top 3 seeds. world no 4 at 8400 ranking points or something, he beat all 3 gs champs this year 3 days back to back, so
@@asdfswer4657 lol
yes finally this is what i have been waiting for
Lopez is a joy to watch. His serve and volley style adds variety to the game. And his slices are laser-like.
Medvedev has all the shots, he's a great player who surely has a future in the game
During this USO I finished to amaze myself at his movement and footwork 💯
Silenced the crowd with his performance👌
really hope that he can win a grand slam soon.... He gots everything needed and can beat all the top guys. 2019 US open is his bets slam performance so far. After that, his level has too many ups and downs in the late stages of the slams, preventing him from really winning one...
Why is this published two weeks before it’s posted
To build hype?
حبيبي وعشقي ولاعبي المفضل رافاييل نادال 💚😘
Finally!
He had awesome 2019 year. Us open final. Western southern open winner, etc
so happy for this man right here!
I wanna hear what he said to everyone at the handshake, especially Lopez
I know he said ‘amazing play, keep playing like this and you’re gonna be good’ to Koepfer.
Sir Benjamin The Bold yeah I could hear that clearly but not the others
1:11 May be quite expensive, seeing that Medvedev made the final...?
So foxy 🐺 ...
i like him
Medvedev had the season of his life I'm nearly positive the only person he didn't beat is Nadal in 2019
He lost to djokovic in r4 in Australian open
He beat Djokovic in Cincinnati semi final 2019
Н-да... перевод эпический конечно))
It's between him and Thiem the usopen 2020
Ice cold baby
Medvedev was so far back in the court against Dimitrov - I don't know why Dimitrov didn't try more drop shots or even underarm serves.
Crossing fingers for tomorrow
What did he say to Dellien?
He said you played well till 2nd round .But also continue improving he said
At 7:14 the umpire says second set medvedev after the third set
he should’ve won and needs to win.. there’s no great players in this generation like in the past to challenge the old guard (jok, nad, fed)... every gen has a passing of the guard.. this is why tennis is dying... you can’t have 3 old guys win everything... it needs new blood to draw younger ppl.. us old guys... we love watching the big 3 win..
You should have the best players winning everything. If young players want to get ahead then they have to get better than the Big 3. It's all earned.
Tsar
What did he say to Dellien? 5:08

@@tejastennis3290 Thanks!!!
Is there anyone who has beaten Rafa after being down 2-0?
His groundstrokes are ugly as heck, but can't deny that it works so well for him 😅
When Rafa as a mere kid played his 1st final slam he compelled people around the world root for him... such was the magnetism he gave off... distant nobody's like all of us at home instantly made him one of our own... we cheered for him when we could not even watch his game live...on that day...! Today's young people 1st of all don't even look "young"... they are all well into their 20s and have nothing about them that would make viewers like them at all... somehow they slam their way to finals - this guy may even win it but it will never be the same... bcuz the spell that Rafa cast over people - young old male female was something else... the other 2 who get bracketed with Rafa don't even come close... he simply electrifies the world stage of tennis... and to think that poor chap has been battling a birth defect in his foot all along...only fate/destiny can be that cruel...
Why is he always apologising to the opponent at the end of the match?
Because he is winning ;)
He played so many lefties in this run of his.
I don't like his manner though he shows good performance.
Finally!
