Medvedev would reel off the final 21 points of his 6-3, 6-2 victory over Coric to earn his 12th consecutive victory. The Rotterdam and Doha champion is into the semifinals in Dubai, where he will face World No.1 Novak Djokovic.
“I’m playing good right now, but when you play Novak, Novak is always the favorite,” Medvedev said after the match. “He’s huge, he’s playing great, moving great, you could never say that he’s 35 years old but I always had some good fights with him and I’m hoping for my best shape tomorrow because that’s the only way to beat him.”
Medvedev is 12-0 in the last 17 days, compiling the second-longest winning streak of his career.
He won 20 in a row from November 2020 through February 2021.
Djokovic and Medvedev Set for 14th Career Clash in Dubai Semifinals
The rivals have had some epic battles in the past. Could Friday be their next? By Chris Oddo | @TheFanChild | Thursday March 2, 2023
The two hottest players on the ATP Tour are set to clash on Friday in Dubai. Novak Djokovic – he of the 20-match winning streak, and 15-0 to start the season – will face Daniil Medvedev, owner of 12 consecutive wins, for the 14th time.
Djokovic, who defeated Medvedev earlier this season (6-3, 6-4) in the semifinals at Adelaide in a match that saw him injury his hamstring, knows he’ll be in for a tough challenge.
“Daniil is one of the best players in the world for the last five years,” Djokovic said. “Grand Slam winner. Former No. 1 in the world. Not much to talk about. His quality is as tough as it gets when you are supposed to face someone on the hard court particularly.”
🍿 to the ready…
Unstoppable force meets immovable object, @DjokerNole & @DaniilMedwed face off once again in Dubai.

Djokovic owns a 9-4 lifetime record against Medvedev, and he has won the last four meetings after losing to Medvedev in the 2021 US Open final.
“I know what to expect. I've been watching him play,” he said. “He's on the roll, winning tournaments, one or more tournaments before Dubai, I'm not sure. But he's had a great run – I haven't had a bad run myself, so I think we're both in great form and hopefully can have a good match.”

Grounds for a National Divorce
The mainstream media has finally caught on to something that has been brewing in America for decades: The deepening divide between two cultures. On one side is the “Blue State” coastal/leftist/authoritarian/atheist/urban culture. And on the other side is the “Red State” inland/conservative/liberty-loving/Christian/rural culture. Back in 2021, we read this headline, from Forbes: America’s Mass Migration Intensifies As ‘Leftugees’ Flee Blue States And Counties For Red. That article included this: “America is on the move like never before. Some would say at a tectonic level and for many the driver is as much political as it is economic. The top five …
