Russian tennis champion of the US Open 2021, Daniil Medvedev will remain in the top position in the ATP ranking at least until the end of the Masters Series tournament in Cincinnati (USA), which will be held from August 14 to 21.
Medvedev reached the Los Cabos, Mexico, ATP250 tournament by defeating Serbia’s Miomir Kecmanovic (7-6) (7-0), (6-1) in the semifinals. The Russian defeated Rinky Hijikata and Ricardas Berankis on his way to the decisive stage.
In theory, Medvedev could lose his world number one ranking after the Cincinnati tournament. He could be displaced by the Spaniards Rafael Nadal or Carlos Alcaraz.
For the title in Los Cabos, Medvedev will fight with the reigning champion, British Cameron Norrie.
