Daniil Medvedev is just one win away from re-taking his No. 1 spot on the ATP rankings. The Russian cane back from 5-3 down to defeat Jenson Brooksby with a score of 7-5, 6-1 at the Round of 16 of the Miami Open. Medvedev awaits the winner between Llyod Harris and defending champion Hubert Hurkacz in the quarterfinals of the tournament.<\/p>\n
It was required for Medvedev to reach the semifinals of the Miami Open to retake his No. 1 ranking from Serb Novak Djokovic. Daniil, following his tremendous form this season, was crowned World No. 1 and after Djokovic\u2019s quarterfinals exit at the Dubai Tennis Championships this year. The 20-times Grand Slam champion was then back on top due to Medvedev\u2019s early exit at the Indian Wells Masters 2022.<\/p>\n
Medvedev has now won 10 out of his 11 last games and is anticipated to continue his form to become No. 1 again. The tennis professional from Russia has been in stunning form this season from the ATP Cup to reaching the final of the Australian Open and achieving the top rank.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
