Daniil Medvedev wins 2022 Vienna Open

Daniil Medvedev of Moscow, Russia, the number three ranked player in the world, won the 2022 Vienna Open on Sunday. In a three-set final, Medvedev defeated Denis Shapovalov of Canada, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2.

One of the key statistics in the match was double faults. Medvedev had three double faults, while Shapovalov had six double faults.

There is no doubt that  a weakness for Shapovalov is his serve, especially the ball toss leading up to it. From a mechanical perspective, Shapovalov’s serve is extremely awkward, as he carves his back on a regular basis to launch the serve. This is simply the one thing that Shapovalov needs to work on regularly with his coach, fellow Canadian tennis player Peter Polansky of North York, Ontario.

Leading up to the Vienna Open Final, Medvedev did not drop a set. He beat Nikoloz Basilashvili of Georgia 6-2, 6-2 in the first round, 2020 United States Open champion Dominic Thiem of Austria 6-3, 6-3 in the second round, the sixth seed Jannik Sinner of Italy 6-4, 6-2 in the quarterfinals, and three-time grand slam semifinalist Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria 6-4, 6-2 in the semifinals. Dimitrov reached the final four of 2014 Wimbledon, 2017 Australian Open, and 2019 United States Open.

This was Medvedev’s second tournament victory of 2022. He previously beat Cam Norrie of Great Britain 7-5, 6-0 in the final of the Los Cabos Open in Mexico on August 6, 2022.

This was the first time Medvedev has won the Vienna Open. He becomes the second Russian to win the Vienna Open. Andrey Rublev of Moscow defeated Lorenzo Sonego of Italy 6-4, 6-4 in the 2020 Vienna Open final.
