Daniil Medvedev Wins 21st ATP Title Ending 882-Day Drought at Almaty Open

Daniil Medvedev ended an 882-day title drought by winning the Almaty Open, defeating Corentin Moutet in a hard-fought final with a score of 7-5, 4-6, 6-3. This victory marked Medvedev's 21st ATP title, each won at a different tournament, continuing a unique personal record. Despite a challenging 2025 season marked by inconsistent form and a coach change, Medvedev has shown signs of resurgence, including an improved serve and more aggressive play. His win in Almaty was especially meaningful as it coincided with his first tournament attended by both his daughters, and he dedicated the title to his second daughter, Victoria. Medvedev, currently ranked World No. 14, plans to compete next at the Vienna Open and the Paris Masters as he aims for a strong finish to the season. With 302 hard-court wins since 2018, more than any current player, Medvedev remains a formidable competitor on the ATP Tour.
