If you scroll quickly through Daniil Medvedev's resume since he turned pro in 2015, a hierarchy of surfaces becomes clear.
On hard courts, the Russian has won his only major championship—the 2021 U.S. Open—and reached three Australian Open finals. On grass, he reached the Wimbledon semifinals in 2023.
Clay has been less kind to the 28-year-old. The furthest Medvedev has advanced at the French Open is the quarterfinals in '21, and he's reached just two clay ATP singles finals ever.
