At the Wimbledon Championships, Daniil Medvedev, a former world number one, finds comfort and motivation on Court No. 1. Medvedev hasn’t lost on this particular court, despite his previous underwhelming performances at the competition, which fuels his drive to keep winning and his fondness for the location.
Medvedev considers his Wimbledon trip as he prepares for the quarterfinals, thinking that this may be his fifth or sixth time competing in the famous event. Even if he hasn’t had much success at Wimbledon thus far, No. 1 Court has always been a source of great happiness for the Russian ace. The reason is simple. Medvedev has never been on the losing side at this particular court and hence it has a particular place in his heart.
“The thing is, it’s probably my 5th or 6th Wimbledon. I wasn’t very successful. But I never lost on this court. I feel sorry that the QF I’ll probably play on Centre Court. I’m like, can’t I just continue here? I love it,” said Medvedev. It is obvious how attached he is to the No.1 Court and how eager he is to continue on the cherished court that has provided him happiness and success.
Medvedev experienced a remarkable connection to the site during the 2023 Wimbledon Championships. He was welcomed by a friendly and encouraging audience as he entered Centre Court with British wild card Arthur Fery. His experience at Wimbledon was significantly impacted by the unexpected cheers and acclaim he received.
Daniil Medvedev professes his passion for Wimbledon’s No.1 Court
Along with the enthusiastic support, Daniil Medvedev’s admiration for the No. 1 Court is a result of his accomplishments there. In a recent encounter, he defeated Jiri Lehecka, showing off his power by breaking his opponent’s serve early on and controlling the proceedings the entire time. Lehecka’s regrettable retirement as a result of an injury allowed Medvedev to triumph and make it to the quarterfinals while continuing his unblemished record on the Centre Court.
In addition to producing magnificent shot-making and relishing the excitement of competing on tennis’ grandest stage, Medvedev aspires to exhibit exemplary sportsmanship. He consents to the obligation of returning the crowd’s love and admiration.
It is impossible to deny Medvedev’s love for Wimbledon’s No. 1 Court. Although he knows Center Court’s significance for the quarterfinals, he still longs for the welcoming atmosphere of No. 1 Court. At this point in his campaign, it is still being determined whether he will continue his winning streak and cherished relationship with No. 1 Court or if he will attempt to win more matches on Centre Court to win Wimbledon.
