Hilarious Medvedev moment highlights ATP stars' grass-court predictions

Daniil Medvedev’s sense of humour and thoughtful— sometimes sarcastic — answers always provide entertainment.

The 28-year-old provided plenty of laughs in a new ATP Tour feature, during which Medvedev, Casper Ruud, Holger Rune, Taylor Fritz, amongst others, provided their grass-court predictions. Medvedev delivered the funniest moment of the piece.

“I don’t have a grass-court title, I will try to win Halle this year… No, I have one in Mallorca! Forget it,” Medvedev said with a smile, seemingly forgetting that he won a trophy on the surface in 2021.

Medvedev also delivered a surprise answer, naming a player outside the Top 40 of the PIF ATP Rankings when asked about a dark horse for the grass swing while several others agreed on a lefty inside the Top 20. Can you guess either player?

Ruud and Hubert Hurkacz chose a fellow Top 10 star to find success throughout the next month while Ben Shelton is eyeing a colleague to relive a standout 2023 run.

“I think he’s going to back up what he did last year,” Shelton said.
