962 wins in the database and the Hangzhou title as Medvedev’s season benchmark

Daniil Medvedev wrapped up the American swing with the Hangzhou title and reached the end of the 2026 season ranked sixth in the world. We break down how his career total and current year add up.

The main number through which Medvedev should be viewed is 962 career wins in the api.tennis database. The tally counts the matches included in the database, and it belongs to the 1996-born player who still remains near the top of the rankings. According to rank.tennis, Medvedev is No. 6 with 3770 points, and in the live rankings he has 3860 points in the same position.

The season in numbers

In 2026, Medvedev’s singles record stands at 40 wins and 16 losses. In doubles, he has one loss and no wins. In singles this season, he has reached two finals and turned one of them into a title. The distribution of wins by round shows where most of the volume comes from: 7 wins in the second round of main draws, 5 each in the round of 32 and round of 16, 4 in quarterfinals, 2 in semifinals and one in the final.

Four straight wins in Hangzhou

The title came at the tournament in Hangzhou. In the round of 16, Medvedev beat Valentin Royer 7-6 6-3, and in the quarterfinals he needed three sets against Coleman Wong, 6-3 6-7 6-3. The semifinal against Roman Safiullin and the final against Andrey Rublev ended the same way, 7-5 6-4. The tournament’s last two matches followed the same script: a tight first set and a more confident second set.

The American stretch before the title

The road to Hangzhou was uneven. At the National Bank Open, Medvedev lost to Botic van de Zandschulp in his very first match, 3-6 6-7. In Cincinnati, he beat Marco Trungelliti 6-4 7-5, but then lost to Brandon Nakashima in three sets, 7-6 6-7 1-6. In Winston-Salem, his opponent was Martin Damm, and the match ended in a 5-7 3-6 defeat.

At the US Open, the trajectory stabilized. Medvedev beat Hugo Gaston 6-4 6-2 6-4, Gorzny 6-1 6-3 7-5 and Arthur Rinderknech 6-4 6-4 6-4, without dropping a set in three matches. In the round of 16, Frances Tiafoe stopped him: 6-7 4-6 6-7, with two of the three sets decided in tiebreaks.

The picture is a coherent one. Nearly a thousand wins in the database and 40 wins this season show that Medvedev continues to collect victories regularly at a high level, while the Hangzhou title and sixth place in the rankings cement his place among the tour’s leaders. At the same time, the losing streaks in the early rounds over the summer show that the stability of his season rests on individual strong stretches rather than on steady play from tournament to tournament.
