Djokovic now awaits either Medvedev or Coric in Friday’s semi-final, and could be tested if he meets the world No 7 for a 14th time with Medvedev coming into Dubai off the back of winning two successive titles in Rotterdam and Doha. The world No 1 leads their head-to-head by nine wins to four losses but the Russian has often proven a tricky player for Djokovic to get past.
Medvedev was asked about a potential semi-final meeting with Djokovic on Saturday after winning the title in Doha after the pair were placed in the same half of the draw. And he was up for the challenge, saying: “If I want to reach Novak, probably what you say is semis, it’s a great challenge because Novak barely loses matches, so there is a big chance he’s going to be in the semi unless someone plays the match of his life and manage to beat him.”
Meanwhile, Djokovic leads his head-to-head with Coric 4-0 and has never even lost a set to the Croat.
