Daniil Medvedev vs Grigor Dimitrov prediction

Daniil Medvedev at the 2022 US Open. Medvedev appears to be back to his best this week. While positive signs were there during the Astana Open as well, an injury halted his momentum then. Across his three matches here, he has faced just one break point. He has been serving efficiently and it wasn't any different during his quarterfinal win over Sinner. The Russian has also been dominant from the back of the court, refusing to cede the upper hand during baseline exchanges. Dimitrov started strong during his quarterfinal against Giron, but his level dipped considerably as the match progressed. While he managed to come out on top in the end, it won't be enough against the former US Open champion. At his best, Dimitrov has the game to trouble the Russian. But Medvedev is looking in ominous form at the moment and should be able to get past his opponent with ease. Pick: Daniil Medvedev to win in straight sets. Poll : Who will win the 2022 ATP finals?
