Daniil Medvedev won the previous edition of the Diriyah Tennis Cup in Saudi Arabia and he's inspired to win it again this year.

Along with many other outstanding athletes, Medvedev will compete in the problematic event, trying to get the trophy and substantial prize money. Medvedev reflected on his prior competitive experience here and how it helped him feel confident going into his significant breakthrough year in 2019:

„It bought me a lot of confidence for the season ahead and that’s what I’m going to try to do this season.“

Things have been going well for Medvedev this year as he became a father recently and it's filled his life with joy:

„I’m a really happy person in life right now, it’s only good emotions. the experience is amazing, many many people told me that I can only understand this when I have a baby and now I can completely understand. It’s a lot of fun. I’m so happy about it and so grateful to my wife.“

„The only thing I want of myself and for the fans to see is the best version of me. I want to play good tennis, this season there were some moments where I was not myself on the court, there were some things not working, not clicking," added Medvedev.
