different tournaments \u2014 but could he finally end that remarkable run at the Dubai Tennis Championships this week?<\/p>\n<p>World No 11<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/daniil-medvedev\"> Medvedev<\/a> is the third seed at the ATP 500 event and has been in fine form in Dubai this week, not dropping more than four games in a set to reach the final of the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>The Russian defeated Jerry Shang, Stan Wawrinka, and Jenson Brooksby to reach the last four of the tournament, where he impressed in a 6-4, 6-2 win over top seed and world No 8 Felix-Auger-Aliassime to reach the final.<\/p>\n<p>It is a second final of 2026 for Medvedev,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/daniil-medvedev-amusing-request-atp-tour-bizarre-title-record\"> who lifted the Brisbane International title back in January<\/a>, and this is his 42nd <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/atp-tour\">ATP Tour<\/a> final in total \u2014 with the former world No 1 gunning for his 23rd career title.<\/p>\n<p>However, this could be the first time that Medvedev has won the same tournament twice.<\/p>\n<p>The 30-year-old\u2019s 22 previous singles titles have all come at different tournaments and in different cities, with Medvedev never repeating as a champion at any event \u2014 despite winning a Grand Slam title and six Masters 1000 titles during a landmark career.<\/p>\n<p>He previously won the Dubai Tennis Championships in 2023, beating Andrey Rublev in straight sets to lift the title three years ago.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, he will take on unseeded Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor, who has beaten second seed Alexander Bublik, sixth seed Jakub Mensik, and fifth seed Rublev to reach the final.<\/p>\n<h2>Tennis News<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-features\/emma-raducanu-sponsors-critics-mark-petchey\">Emma Raducanu: Why the critics are missing the point when they question the British No 1<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/atp-tour\/jannik-sinner-ranking-chance-carlos-alcaraz-no1\">Jannik Sinner handed a glorious chance to eat into Carlos Alcaraz\u2019s ranking lead<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Dutchman won his only previous meeting against Medvedev, a quarter-final encounter at this very tournament in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>However, Griekspoor has fitness concerns ahead of Saturday\u2019s final, with the Dutchman struggling at times during his semi-final win over Rublev on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Victory in Dubai would represent a significant breakthrough for Medvedev, but with action in Indian Wells starting in less than a week, the Russian is not planning to get too carried away.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo matter what you do, if you win or lose the next morning, probably three or four, we leave to go to Los Angeles,\u201d said Medvedev, speaking to <em>Tennis TV<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Then asked if he would celebrate on-court after the final, should he win, the 30-year-old also did not give too much away.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn court celebration? Let\u2019s see. I was not supposed to do anything, but now that you tell me, maybe I\u2019ll think about something.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe most important [thing] is to stay focused on the game itself, try to play my best tennis, and try to win like this.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>What titles has Medvedev won?<\/h2>\n<p>Prior to the 2026 Dubai Tennis Championships title final, Medvedev has won 22 titles at 22 different tournaments. They are:<\/p>\n<p><strong>2018<\/strong>: Sydney International, Winston-Salem Open, Japan Open<br \/>\n<strong>2019<\/strong>: Sofia Open, Cincinnati Open, St. Petersburg Open, Shanghai Masters<br \/>\n<strong>2020<\/strong>: Paris Masters, ATP Finals<br \/>\n<strong>2021<\/strong>: Open 13, Mallorca Open, Canadian Open, US Open<br \/>\n<strong>2022<\/strong>: Los Cabos Open, Vienna Open<br \/>\n<strong>2023<\/strong>: Rotterdam Open, Qatar Open, Dubai Tennis Championships, Miami Open, Italian Open<br \/>\n<strong>2025<\/strong>: Almaty Open<br \/>\n<strong>2026<\/strong>: Brisbane International<\/p>\n<h2>Who else has longest \u2018different title\u2019 streaks?<\/h2>\n<p>Prior to Saturday\u2019s Dubai final, Medvedev\u2019s 22 titles at 22 different events was the longest such streak on the ATP Tour.
