Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Daniil Medvedev, who is currently ranked World No. 8 and has a career-high ranking of No. 1, will be facing Jaume Munar in their first-ever meeting. Medvedev, who is 29 years old, reached the top spot in the rankings for a total of 16 weeks in 2022, making him the tallest player to ever hold the No. 1 position at 1.98m (6’6″). He is also the first player other than Djokovic, Federer, Murray, and Nadal to achieve the top ranking since Roddick in 2004.
Medvedev has reached the final of a Grand Slam six times and holds a 5-3 record against Djokovic when the Serbian is ranked as the World No. 1. In the 2021 US Open final, Medvedev secured a remarkable victory of 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 against Djokovic, denying him the opportunity to achieve a calendar Grand Slam. Additionally, he achieved a notable feat by defeating the No. 1 Djokovic, No. 2 Nadal, and No. 3 Thiem en route to winning the 2020 Nitto ATP Finals title, becoming the first player to sweep the top three players in tournament history since 2007.
The match between Medvedev and Munar will take place at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, USA, from March 19 to March 30, 2025. Medvedev has had an impressive record at this tournament, having won the title in 2023. He also boasts an undefeated streak in the opening rounds of the Miami tournament, with a 6-0 record. In the last four editions, he has reached at least the quarter-finals (2021-22 QF, 2023 Title, 2024 SF). Furthermore, Medvedev has a perfect record of 16-0 against players ranked outside the top 20 at this event. He aims to continue this success and break the streak in Miami this year.
Medvedev has achieved significant milestones throughout his career. He has earned 20 consecutive wins from 2020 to 2021, including 12 wins against top-10 players. In 2021, he led the ATP Tour with 63 victories and won team titles at the ATP Cup, Laver Cup, and Davis Cup. Among his 20 singles titles, 18 have been won on hard courts. He has clinched ATP Masters 1000 championships at various events, including Cincinnati in 2019, Shanghai in 2019, Paris in 2020, Toronto in 2021, Miami in 2023, and Rome in 2023 (his first clay-court title).
