Daniil Medvedev is touted to be another superstar in the making. Medvedev won the Sydney International in January last year by beating local player Alex de Minaur in the final, and has been one of the most consistent players on tour this year.

The 22-year-old is quite good with his deceptive drop shots and can be a tricky player from the back of the court. The Russian has also shown his consistency and sharpness with his tireless groundstrokes.

Medvedev was recently quoted as saying that he wants to work more on his serve, and doing that will certainly help him win matches more efficiently. His ground game is already in very good shape, and his destructive two-handed backhand in particularl can outclass any opponent.

Medvedev has reached the Monte Carlo semifinal and Barcelona final this clay swing, and many expect him to do well at the upcoming clay Major.
