Medvedev Dominates Brisbane, Claims Title

Former world number one Daniil Medvedev has commenced his 2026 season with an emphatic victory at the Brisbane International. He secured the title by defeating Brandon Nakashima in a commanding performance. Medvedev clinched the win in straight sets, with a final score of 6-2, 7-6(1), highlighting his dominance on the court.

During the final, Medvedev delivered an impressive 10 aces and conceded only one point in the crucial second-set tiebreak. This triumph is particularly meaningful for the 29-year-old, who has seen his world ranking slip to 13th after a period of limited success, winning only one singles title in the past two years.

The win in Brisbane represents Medvedev's 22nd ATP singles title of his career. Having reached three of the last five Australian Open finals, this strong showing positions him as a significant contender for the upcoming Grand Slam, even without a top seeding.
