The German defeated the Russian in straight sets by 6-4, 6-4 to clinch his second Nitto ATP finals title. Thus, Medvedev could not defend his title after Zverev come out with his best.<\/p>\n<p>The German was able to win 84% of his first-serve points while Medvedev could only win 71% of his first-serve points and it was the defining moment of the match. In fact, Medvedev had only 59% first serve while Zverev\u2019s first serve was 80% accurate.<\/p>\n<p>Medvedev had beaten Zverev in the group stage but the Russian could not bring his best to the table when it mattered the most in the all-important final. Furthermore, Medvedev had gotten the better of Zverev in the last five meetings but the German was finally able to turn the tables.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s tough to say, maybe some tiredness of the body, maybe mentally I wasn\u2019t 100 per cent,\u201d said Medvedev, after Zverev won 6-4, 6-4 in the final. \u201cNot that I didn\u2019t want to be, but definitely something was missing. I don\u2019t have the answer, but it made the difference.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven when [my serve] was going on the line, it didn\u2019t really have that spark. It wasn\u2019t enough for Sascha, who is a great player and broke me two times. Sometimes, in a way, it\u2019s not bad, but when you\u2019re playing in a big final on a fast surface against someone who is serving like Sascha, it\u2019s enough to win the match. We can talk about many things, but the serve was definitely the key today, and he was better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Medvedev admitted that he could not return Zverev\u2019s serve and it gave the German advantage against him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe all try to do something different, to prepare differently or play differently,\u201d said Medvedev. \u201cI felt he was doing something differently. Maybe I lost the first break of serve [at 1-1 in the first set] because of this, but at the same time if you make aces you get into the match.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI tried to change up things I\u2019d been doing, and I felt it was working well, but I just couldn\u2019t return his serve and it was enough for him to win the match\u2026 Every time you know he is going to do something new and you have to be prepared for it and the same for them. This time he won, but next time I will try to do something better and try to do something better than him and win.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, despite the loss in the Nitto ATP finals, Medvedev had a great run in 2021 as he will finish at number two in ATP rankings. Medvedev had a 58-13 record in the season and also won four titles, the most important of them came in August when he lifted his first Grand slam title, the US Open.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The World no.2 Daniil Medvedev admitted that his serve didn\u2019t have the spark against Alexander Zverev in the final of the Nitto ATP Finals on Sunday in Turin.
