No one believed me he was going to be a late bloomer with a game like Feds
The poll is still active if anybody cares to put their views on this talent

Tim Van Rijthoven, smooth footwork and flows like Fed can he have good late career?
Watching him play recently and last night vs the talented Leprechaun and I really like his Fed like influence Does anyone think he could be a late bloomer as he is filling into his body and game? I guess, I miss this kind of all round smooth tennis player without the dramaturgy and tear...

Is Tennis Channel seriously going to stay with split screen for the entirety of these matches? It's getting ridiculous. Just pick one.

Have to be one of the lowest ranked players to win a title if he pulls this off. Even worse it’s against the new #1 tomorrow. Geez the men’s tour is in a wreck.

World number #205 up 6-4 3-0 on the new #1 tomorrow. Good job ATP.
It's not the first time we see something like this especially on grass.On this surface it's easier to hide the weaknesses by keeping the points short.

Surprises often happen on grass though. Dustin Brown proved it.

Cool. #205 on track to beat the new #1. It’s an embarrassment. The comments i’d see if that was Swiatek. This is a huge disgrace to the men’s tour and shows where its at.
LOL you know right that Osaka is worse than Med on natural surfaces and even she was ranked 1 for a long time. Also Raaducanu literally won a slam and has not done anything since then

The defences are amazing. This isn’t the 2R of slam against a #3. It’s the final of a tournament against the #1 vs a wildcard or whatever this dude outside the top 200 is. I think Dustin was at least top 100.

Yet you don't act like it's an embarrassment when the entire top 10 can't make the 2nd week of a slam in the WTA. At least be consistent.

Babe, new #1 losing to someone out of the top 200, that’s what we are looking at. Swiatek on a 35 match win streak and Medvedev about to lose to #205? LOL as you say.

Looks like Tim doesn't want to disappoint the tournament which has given him a wildcard.

Good for this dude. Everyone else doesn’t give credit when a woman loses to someone lower but this bloke is a nobody. He’s about to defeat the new #1.
No use arguing with a hypocrite
Also lets see what Swiatek does on grass lol.

#205 on track to bagel the new #1. And people here are still trying to slam the WTA? While Iga has won 35 matches straight? Lmao. Medvedev utterly cringe right now.

So the world #1 has yet to win a tournament in 2022 and is about to lose to someone who is not even in the top 100???? Incredible!!!!

Can’t be worse than being bagelled by the #205 as Medvedev is right now hey? How embarrassing am I right? Lmao.

Call it out? I make fun of the NextGen kids every day. Of course this is pathetic from him.
Just that no one wants to hear this from you when it happens consistently on the WTA and you just say "Wow, what an upset! What depth!" when their entire tour is in consistent shambles for years on end.

At least try, Med. Make the win more satisfying for this guy.
On grass we've seen all kinds of results throughout the years.
Mahut for example didn't do anything on the singles court...but come grass court season he was there.
Dustin Brown another good example.
Or Marcus Willis;outside like top 700 and gets through qualies and wins a match at Wimbledon.
It's tough to judge the quality of a player just by watching him on grass.

If you can’t throw in a first serve you will be in big trouble. Doesn’t matter who the other player is.

Medvedev gets breadsticked 4-6 1-6 in the final of Hertogenbosch by Van Rijthoven ranked #205.
Daniil will still return to the #1 ranking tomorrow despite the utterly embarrassing loss.
Well done to Van Rijthoven.

Come USO, you folks and your favorites will live in his fear. Only Djokovic and Nadal are capable of beating him there. Also every world no.1 of last 15 year not named Federer and Djokovic have had embarrassing losses in slams, Murray's 2017 , Nadal's losses in WB and so on. Atleast Medvedev has an excuse that he isn't good on Natural surfaces.

Medvedev the number 1 men’s player without a single title in 2022. The ATP is so strong right now

This is up there with Carretero in Hamburg 1996.
The difference is Carretero was ranked 143 (a bit higher), but he also won a Super 9 (Masters 1000 equivalent), which is a lot better than a 250.
Carretero beat Kafelnikov in the semis and Corretja in the final, which I also think is more impressive than beating a so-so Medvedev in the final.
Still an amazing achievement, of course.
