World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev is back in training ahead of the 2022 season. In a video posted on social media, the Russian can be seen hitting some forehands and backhands with tremendous intensity.
Daniil Medvedev has had a phenomenal 2021 season. He won four ATP titles and lifted his maiden Grand Slam trophy at the US Open. He also won the 2021 National Bank Open.
In addition to his triumph on hardcourts, the Russian won a title on grass at the Mallorca Open. He also led Russia to victory in the ATP Cup and Davis Cup Finals in 2021.
Medvedev recently uploaded a video on his Instagram story in which he was seen training at the Mouratoglou Academy in France. Run by Serena Williams' coach Patrick Mouratoglou, the academy is one of the biggest in the world. It has already produced talents like Stefanos Tsitsipas and Coco Gauff among others.
The Academy posted the story of Medvedev training on its Instagram handle, which was later reposted by the Russian.
"How I really work. Daniil Medvedev is everywhere," wrote the Mouratoglou Academy in the caption of the Instagram story.
The World No. 2 will begin his 2022 season at the ATP Cup, where the Russians are the defending champions. It will be played between January 1-9 in Sydney, Australia.
The US Open trophy finally enters Daniil Medvedev's cabinet
Daniil Medvedev recently posted a story on Instagram that showed off his glamorous trophy cabinet. What made the post so special was the presence of Medvedev's 2021 US Open trophy.
The Russian won the title in September 2021 after defeating Novak Djokovic in straight sets in the finals. Medvedev was the only player to beat the Serb at a Major this year, denying him a Calendar Slam in the process.
"Who is finally home?" Medvedev captioned his Instagram story and tagged the official page of the US Open.
Medvedev missed out on the 2021 Australian Open title after losing to Novak Djokovic in the final. The Russian will be looking to make ammends and lift the trophy this year.
