Sydney, Sofia, Marseille, Mallorca? That's all you need to know about clowns like you and those who put likes to you. Medvedev won the slam and would have won in Australia if not the disgusting crowd. Show some respect, don't jerk off on big 3. And don't forget that Medvedev would have become No.1 after USO victory, if not the frozen rankings.

Yes, it's called CRAPPIEST ERA EVER.
That's why Federer almost won all 4 in a row in the 00s, why Djokovic did it a few years ago and almost did it again. Because this is the career inflation / homogenization / Mickey Mouse era, and Disney eras are perfect for breaking all records...

Due to injuries.
He was close to winning all four in a row at AO 11 but got injured in the QFs...

Naturally, we must hate people who achieve great things, when their name isn't Djokovic... and we must deny the basic laws of science and logic, just so we can be hardcore pro-Djokovic fans, rooting for a liar and a cheater while claiming that Nadal is the cheater... We must conveniently lie and cheat and accuse others of cheating in order to protect our own cheater, mustn't we...

He did, but Djokovic fans seem to believe that only CALENDARS define great feats...
So... Keep believing, coz CYGS ain't happening again...
Or if Djokovic wins the first 3 slams next year (due to the Mickey Mouse competition) wait for him to botch the USO final again, because those tears, they will be rolling, and he will sit in a pool of his own failure once again...

As long as Hewitt gets to keep his 70 weeks, Medvedev should keep piling up his own weeks.
He needs to reach about half of Hewitt's score, coz he won 1 slam, half of what Hewitt did.

What an absolute joke.
UnderratedSlam
G.O.A.T.
Why?
Medvedev is 1-3 in slams, Roddick is 1-4.
Both won a similar number of big BO3 events. In fact, Medvedev will overtake Roddick in this if he already hasn't done so.
Where is this huge gulf between the two?
Is it because some Fed fans try to elevate Roddick's achievements to absurd heights?

No, because Med got to no.1 and stayed there due to politics. Completely undeserved.

You mean due to Novak not getting a vaccine?
That has zero to do with politics. It's to do with a player's lack of education and sense of entitlement.
Undeserved?
He played two grand slam finals in a space of 5 months. Won one.
Wimbledon not giving out points?
Well, Medvedev was BANNED from it so he COULDN'T pick up any points there - which is why the points ban happened, a logical decision by the ATP. You don't seem too concerned about this injustice of Medvedev not being able to play Wimbledon.
You wanted him banned BUT you also wanted Novak's and Nadal's points to count? Hilarious.
You sure you understood this chaotic ATP year? It's a bit complicated so I understand how some fans might get things easily wrong hence draw very flawed conclusions.

Coz Bugs Bunny is clever, wily, always wins, street-smart, a hustler.
Mickey Mouse is naive and fights fair. He can only win in Disneyworld. Get him to fight crooks outside Disneyworld and he fails.
Bugs doesn't. He can win anywhere.

Point is, Djoker wasn't allowed entry at the AO so he lost 2000 points, not Med's doing.
Djokovic defended Wimb and still lost 2000 points, not Med's doing.
Djoker is not even top 5 in the rankings despite having better results than Med in the last 52 weeks. Nadal also isn't top 2 despite having better results than Med -> rankings are a mess.
So yeah, undeserved.

Djokovic won a slam that Medvedev wasn't allowed to play. Does this fact register in any way? I've said it 11 times already.
Djokovic wasn't allowed entry because he is Serbian and Australia is at war with Serbia?
If that were true then you could argue political reasons. As it is, it's just a matter of not following strict vaccination/VISA rules and causing chaos due to stupidity...
Nadal didn't play the entire second half of 2021 which is why his slam wins weren't enough.
You do understand how the rankings work?
It's not how good you are in 4-5 months but 12 months overall. Skipping 5 months KINDA affects your chances at being no 1.
True, but thanks due to COVID, Russia's war and ATP, Novak lost 4000 ranking points this year. Not saying Novak would have won the AO, but he would not have lost 2000 points at Wimbledon and would probably still be #1

Med wasn't gonna be a factor at Wimb, inlike Djokovic at the AO.
And yes, Med wasn't allowed at Wimb, but he didn't lose as many points as Djokovic who even defended the freaking title.
Med wouldn't have become no.1 without politics in the way.

Because of both events out of his control, and within his control, Djokovic has suffered a lot in the last years.

Djokovic would be thrilled to read this post.
He wants to be a VICTIM.
He wants all the world's headlines to have this statement.
He has the same kind of low dignity levels as Serena. Wants to be a respected alpha champ AND be also a victim of various conspiracies.
Lendl would never have wanted to be pitied. Too much dignity.

But you still don't seem to get that Novak still lost 2000 points despite going all the way. That helped Med big time. He would have lost those points irrespective of Med's Wimb performance. So yeah, underserved.
The ranking are what they are, but no one believes Med is the best player in the world when 2 players have done better than him.

Medvedev wasn't allowed to play Wimbledon.
Hence it wasn't fair competition, because based on discrimination.
Hence points were taken off.
I.e. if Russians can't win points NOBODY wins points.
This is about as simple as logic gets. I can't explain it any simpler without starting to draw it for you.
Besides, I know you're a huge Fed fan and don't like Djokovic very much, so all this "concern" for his well being is frankly a bit confusing and suspicious...

I am just glad that he finally won a tournament in 2022 since it is bizarre to have the #1 player have zero titles in the first seven months! (We have a #2 - Zverev - who holds that distinction). I prefer Medvedev to be #1 but I am really just waiting until my Carlitos makes it to #1! It will happen and I prefer for it to be sooner rather than later! (I have no idea how long it will take, of course, but I do know that it will happen!).
Did you said the same like 5 years ago?

With Nadal out of Cincinnati, Medvedev secured 3 more weeks.
His chances to remain #1 after USO were less than 5% yesterday. Now it's more like 30%.
His fate's in his hands again.
If he defends all his points (Semifinal in Cincinnati and title in USO), he is guaranteed to stay #1.
Even with a Final in USO, he could still remain #1 as long as Nadal doesn't win it.
Have to say, I kind of feel sorry for Zverev in all of this. He is only 125 points behind Medvedev, knowing he won the Gold Medal in Tokyo. If he got 750 points (like any Gold medalists until 2016) he would be #1. And if wasn't injured since RG, there is no doubt he would be #1 as well.
Sure, he wouldn't be the most bankable and exciting number #1 ever, but he would deserve it based on his results in the last 12 months. Between the grass swing, Washington and Toronto, there is no way he wasn't winning 125 points.
