It's unreal how good Medvedev is. The things he does on hard courts are out of this world. Congrats to Opelka, he was rallying best shots of his life. Great performance.
@ No need to get so hostile. Looking at current form, Medvedev is playing better than Nadal. Let's see if Nadal can get over his injury before US Open. Even in AO 2021 Medvedev reached the final while Nadal got eliminated at QF so there's that.
@Christian Toth It’s only gonna get better for Medvedev. Thiem isn’t playing the same level of tennis anymore and Medvedev is just getting better and better.
@@wdsa7129 best chance for him at the U.S this year. Nadal might not play and if he does we don't know what he'll be able to bring, no Federer obviously, no Thiem. Only really Djokovic and mabye Tsitsipas/Zverev to worry about.
@Christian Toth Medvedev is the second best counter puncher. The only problem is that Novak is the best counter puncher in the world. This is why Novak Daniil matches are so terrible for the Russian.
That was brutal. Opelka chained together quite some lethal forehands in that rally and still loses that one. If his soul wasn't crushed before, it certainly must've felt like that after that point. That kind of point is hard to shake off for many.
Danniil is really effective at neutralising the big servers. Broke Isner 4 times in the Semi, and 3 by Opelka. Could make a devastating run in the US Open.
@@allfruitsripe2022 tough to beat djokovic at ao for sure, thats like his homecourt. Also medvedev couldve played wayy better. Hes not scared of Djokovic he's beaten him 3 times.
Man you gotta love Medvedev, at least i do. Whether you like him or not, you got to admit he's an original. He stands out from the rest of the baseline bashers, with his unique brand of tennis.
@@teragramlawrence2864 If you're saying this, you have never seen Medvedev on the run to the US Open and at the US Open. This is traditionally his strongest period in the season.
Great play by Reillly to get to the finals, and... Daniil deserves his ranking, so much fight, so much resistance, such great shot placement at critical points. Unorthodox but a true champion.
@@silb1030 lol No! I played quite well when I was a teenager, and I try to follow what I can, but I'm much more of a musician than a tennis player (and not much of a musician either, if I'm being honest!) It's been quite a while since I made all those Voice comments. Happy times! lol
Opelka looking slightly tired here at times. Medvedev playing a much smarter match than Tsitsipas did against Opelka. Controlling the tempo and his greater consistency making Opelka work.
key is that danil has a two handed backhand, tsitsipas onehanded backhand return did not exist in the match , because it is almost impossible to return a kick serve bouncing 10 meters high on your one handed backhand
Congrats..!!! So happy that Daniil won the Toronto masters 1000. He is a class act, and he always speaks the truth. I am a big fan of Daniil. It's nice to have him when Roger, Rafa & Nole leaves tennis. Hope he can keep his great form well into other surfaces too. Good luck Danny boy...!!!
So many young players today ignore the 2 shot pass. The best defensive players use the 2 shot pass almost all of the time. Medvedev is a master of this combination.
@@ewan735 hitting passing shots with the intention of finishing in 2 shots instead of 1 first shot low and awkward to set up for the second easy shot much safer than trying to hit an outright passing shot in the first shot
@@fans-ed1td A passing shot is any shot (not a lob, or a direct shot to the body) that the player from the baseline hits against a player at the net. Like Lotus explained above, there were 2 passing shots, the first one cross court was not really meant to win the point, but it was low into the feet of Opelka, so that he had to reply with a weak high volley, which was then handled relatively easily by Meddy. The first shot is meant to prepare it for the second.
Good on Medvedev..very easy for him..his defense and shot selection is outstanding..Opelka is getting better and better..he is a no.1 player in tennis sport in the USA right now.
lmao because seb korda plays golf, stop praising players for a few good weeks, korda is the most promising american and he has quite a beautiful style. I really appreciate opelka's evolution and he seems to get better and better all round but he is clearly below Korda's level
@@Balabanovsky What? Aren't you happy on his progression? I tell you man if he spends more time on court practicing his serves, forehand and backhand strokes, keep pushing and digging, intense training. This big guy will be dangerous for years to come. He is a good at net considering his height and lethal forehand. I would like to see him much more competitive like the other big men Del Potro, Isner, Anderson etc...
Must say I really like Reilly. His self awareness, his tennis and personality over all. Whilst it’s nice he acknowledges “servebot” I don’t think he needs to dim his light as much as he does. Very good player for a man his height, he deserved to be in the final today. Great net game and massive forehand. Medvedev was too good today, his defensive skills are just amazingly good. Nice speeches from both. Love daniil’s interviews
What separates Medvedev from the rest and in league with the Big 3, other than his mentality and attitude -- is he varies his game based on the opponent. And he approaches Tennis like solving a Rubix cube. He seemingly has answers for all the conundrums the opponent throws at him...should be nicknamed "The professor" 🙂
The only type of players he still has some troubles with is those like himself. I bet he hates to play against flat hitters, counter punchers RBA for example
Medvedev's groundstrokeing so far behind the baseline combined with his hard court movement abilities meant Opelka had his points-off-serve, winners and forced errors cut in half. Medvedev might be the best defender of this generation
I like Opelka, but not his strategies (poor shot selection, inadequate depth on his groundies, poor speed of foot, and too much reliance on running around his backhand (which is more consistent than his forehand) to hit the big forehand. All this in trying to beat the second best player in the world ("backboard Danil"). Meddy has no discernible weaknesses and ( barring injuries) should soon become #1.
Shapovalov? Social media fanboy favorite. Rublev? Not even. Medvedev? An actual real deal, smart, consistently-good. He's like a classic era player with extra shots and relentless crispness. The rest of the crowd? Good here, and there.
Daniil played flawless, consistent tennis and suffocated Reilly with his airtight defense. I was also really impressed with Opelka's backhand and movement. Congrats to you both.
Yeah, he watches where his opponent is then sends the ball off in a hard to reach place. great tactics against Opelka, as when he came forward to the net he had time to know where his placement shot should go.
Canadians really had an amazing tournament with some of the best games. Also medvedev shots when the oponent goes for the net are out of this world, so much accuracy.
Opelka might have lost, but I appreciate his serve and volley game. If he improves his footwork at the net and also his volley quality and placement, and shot selection, he could become really good. Congrats to Medvedev on the win!
Medvedev is truly a beast on hard courts......his defensive game and his movements are remarkable!!!😍😍 *If he could probably improve his clay court movements and shots he could be extremely effective in all courts......*
That match shows the difference between a future grand slam winner and a good tour player. Opelka has a good serve, powerful groundstrokes and decent net player, albeit limited movement. Medvedev has all that plus superior movement, superior serve returns and a superior counter attacking.
I feel like Toronto is the first time this year that Medvedev has shown why he's No.2 in the world. The consistency, the anticipation, the ability to turn a defensive shot into a lethal winner. Man he's so fun to watch when he's at his best!! US Open let's go Medvedev!!
Against any other player in this tournament this performance from Opelka would have won him the title. But Meddy is a different breed. Props to both players, it was a great final.
A great player like Medvedev (and most consistent after the big 4 era) deserves to have his talent/work be translate into big title numbers. Wishing him to be the next new GS champ (whenever that is)
Good game strategy from Medvedev. On the return game he places the ball at centre court with not too much speed making difficult for Opelka to find angles and produce heavy strokes.
the hard court season after wimby is truly Medvedev's house. he's playing amazingly good at us open series and indoor hard courts. he won Cincy and Shanghai in '19, reached uso final also,in 20' he reached the semis of uso, won Paris and WTF. like u know he's gonna win something big. I root for him at uso. a real threat for Djoker.
Bad shot selection on the drop shot at that point, I think he could have stuck to one more punch shot then an approach to the net as he was controlling the point. The drop shot was kind of sloppy but unfortunate.
@Dwilshire7 you can make some good comments also. That’s true, I agree absolutely. Stef better get his shit together soon or else…….he can pick up gardening 😂😂😂
Medvedev played Opelka here the same way Nadal played him in Rome: standing far back behind the baseline to chase every ball down and pick him off if he ever goes to the net. Brilliant match from Med.
My question is how could you put so much power and so much qualities in your shots when you play 5m behind the baseline? That is simply ridiculous. Great perf from DM.
@@miguelbarahona6636 I know..If he was on clay as good as he is on hard he should have been very close to Novak at the time.

Wow opelka almost had it, with that break point in the second set. He could’ve turned that into a 3 setter with a strong tiebreak
Opelka would still be down a break
Medvedev never brought out his A game, it was never meant to be for Opelka
yea, and I could be the President of the States with some luck :)
Dude what? Lmao you gotta be joking I mean medvedev dominated this match. Opelka could bArely hold serve
Bad shot selection on the drop shot at that point, I think he could have stuck to one more punch shot then an approach to the net as he was controlling the point. The drop shot was kind of sloppy but unfortunate.
"almost had it" means making one more final push in a game mid set, during a match wherein one is dominated completely? lol okay
I believe Daniil will be the first to win a Slam, ahead of Tsitsipas and Zverev
I agree.
@Dwilshire7 you can make some good comments also. That’s true, I agree absolutely. Stef better get his shit together soon or else…….he can pick up gardening 😂😂😂
It will be Medvedev or Zverev for sure. One of them will win this US Open or the next Australian Open.
U were right 👏👏👏😂
Medvedev played Opelka here the same way Nadal played him in Rome: standing far back behind the baseline to chase every ball down and pick him off if he ever goes to the net. Brilliant match from Med.
My question is how could you put so much power and so much qualities in your shots when you play 5m behind the baseline? That is simply ridiculous. Great perf from DM.
When Medvedev raises his hands in apology, it means "sorry I'm so damn good".
Daniil Medvedev is truly the fighting champion.
Congratulations to Medvedev for the big win!
Now we all know who will be the next No. 1.
don't be so sure.. He is one of the best in hard court, but he is behind Stefanos on clay.. He needs to improve on clay
@@georgiosinfa7962 Clay is 1/4 of the points in the race to No. 1 (aprox. numbers).
@@miguelbarahona6636 I know..If he was on clay as good as he is on hard he should have been very close to Novak at the time. Stefanos is very good on hard too, but he needs to level up his game on grass. I believe all 3-4 next gen players are one level behind Daniil, and I speak about Thiem, Zverev and Tsitsipas at the time.. I don't know if and when Rafa is coming back in form.
@@georgiosinfa7962
Hard court : Djokovic , Medvedev, Zverev
Clay Court:Nadal, Djokovic, Tsitsipas
Grass Court: Djokovic, Nadal, Berritini
Bravo, Dani! World No2 for a reason.
IF DJOKO DOESN'T PLAY IN US OPEN 2021, MEDVEDEV IS SURE TO WIN THE TROPHY HERE.
HE HAS ALL THE MAKINGS TO WIN
BIG TOURNAMENT'S AND COME OUT AS NO.1 IN THE DAYS TO COME.
CONGRATS AND GOOD WISHES.
He's putting it all together....US Open will be very interesting.
I know Medvedev hasn't even won a US Open yet. But I want him to dominate and own the US Open like Djokovic did at the AUS Open, Nadal at Roland Garros and Federer at Wimbledon!
Fed is not dominating at Wimbledon any more.
@@minhvienvo5360 fed might not even hve the most Wimbeledon when all 3 retire
He did dominate in the US open 👏
Hands down the best returner in this tournament
