Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?

2R: Thiago Seyboth Wild of Brazil and Daniil Medvedev will face each other in a match at the 2023 Roland Garros tournament in France on clay. Thiago Seyboth Wild currently leads the head-to-head record against Medvedev, with one win to his name. In their previous encounter at Roland Garros, Seyboth Wild emerged victorious after a five-set battle.

Thiago Seyboth Wild, who is 24 years old, is currently ranked 88th in the world, with a career-high ranking of 58th. In 2024, he has a win-loss record of 19-22, with two quarterfinal appearances. He also holds a 1-0 record at the Shanghai tournament in 2024, having reached the second round. In May 2024, he achieved his career-high ranking after making it to the third round in ATP Masters 1000 events in Indian Wells, Miami, and Madrid during the season.

As a 19-year-old wild card, Seyboth Wild won the 2020 Santiago title, defeating Ruud. This victory made him the first ATP Tour champion born in the 2000s and the youngest Brazilian champion in the Open Era. In his debut at the Roland Garros main draw in 2023, he caused an upset by defeating the World No. 2, Daniil Medvedev, marking his first Grand Slam win. This victory also made him the first player to defeat a top 2 seed in the first round of a Grand Slam since Karlovic at the 2003 Wimbledon.

In 2020, Seyboth Wild saved three match points to defeat Davidovich Fokina in the first round of the Rio de Janeiro tournament, resulting in the longest ATP Tour match since the 2009 Madrid semifinals between Nadal and Djokovic. He also earned his first ATP Tour win on home clay in 2019 Sao Paulo and reached his second ATP Tour quarterfinal at the 2024 Rio de Janeiro event. In his junior career, Seyboth Wild won the 2018 US Open boys’ singles title by defeating Musetti.

However, Seyboth Wild has struggled against top 10 players, with a record of 1-5 (0-4 in 2024). His only win against a top 10 player came last year when he defeated Medvedev in the first round of Roland Garros. He aims to be the first Brazilian man since Bellucci in 2016 to achieve 20 wins in a season and to reach the third round of the ATP Masters 1000 for the fourth time in his career, following his performances in Indian Wells, Miami, and Madrid in 2024.

On the other hand, Daniil Medvedev is 28 years old and currently ranked 5th in the world, with a career-high ranking of 1st. In 2024, he has a win-loss record of 42-17, including two finals appearances. At the Shanghai tournament, he has a 7-3 record, with a title win in 2019. In 2022, he spent 16 weeks as the World No. 1, becoming the tallest player to hold that position at 1.98m (6’6″) and the first player other than Djokovic, Federer, Murray, and Nadal to do so since Roddick in 2004.

Medvedev has reached six Grand Slam finals and holds a 5-3 record against Djokovic when the Serbian is ranked as the World No. 1. In the 2021 US Open final, he defeated Djokovic in straight sets to deny him the calendar Grand Slam. He also secured the 2020 Nitto ATP Finals title by defeating the World No. 1 Djokovic, the World No. 2 Nadal, and the World No. 3 Thiem, becoming the first player to sweep the top 3 seeds in tournament history since the 2007 Madrid event.

From 2020-2021, Medvedev achieved a streak of 20 consecutive wins, with 12 victories 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. He has won 18 of his 20 singles titles on hard courts and has captured ATP Masters 1000 championships at Cincinnati, Shanghai, Paris, Toronto, Miami, and Rome. His first career clay ATP Tour title came in Rome in 2023.

In the 2024 season, Medvedev has a record of 13-2 in opening rounds, but suffered early exits in the second round of the last two ATP Masters 1000 events, losing to Davidovich Fokina in Montreal and Lehecka in Cincinnati. He boasts an undefeated record of 15-0 against players ranked outside the top 50 in 2024.
