Who is the King of Hardfields? Judging from the impression, this itself is a topic of benevolence and wisdom, but what if it is spoken of with data?
A media has calculated the top five on the hard court since 2018, let's see who are there?
At the top of the list is not Djokovic or Federer in everyone's mind, but the Russian Medvedev. He is in first place in both the number of wins and the number of championships.
177 wins, more than 30 wins ahead of second place. The 12 championship trophies he has won are also heavy, and a little count includes: the 2021 US Open, the 2019 Cincinnati and Shanghai Masters, the 2020 Paris Masters and year-end finals, the 2021 Canadian Championship, etc.
In second place is Zverev, who claimed to be the top three in the world before this season, and although the German has not been in good shape recently, the trophies he has won in recent years are not low, such as: the year-end finals in 2018 and 2021, the 2021 Cincinnati Masters and Olympic gold medals. He has also reached 9 championships, and now the total number of championships stands out among the new generation.
In third place is Rublev. As a rising star known as the "King of 500 Matches", he won only 4 fewer games than Zverev and 1 less number of championships. His major races include Rotterdam in 2021, Vienna and St. Petersburg in 2020 and Dubai this year.
Unfortunately, Rublev has so far made no difference in the field of masters.
In fourth place is Greek Tsitsipas, who has won just four games less than Rublev but has four fewer titles. He has won only one 2019 Grand Finals title with considerable gold content, and the rest are 250 championships.
The reason why the conversion rate of hard-to-win is so low is that he has not scored so far in the final of the 500 tournament.
The fifth person on the list is no one else, it is the king of hard courts in the minds of the vast majority of people, Djokovic, who has won 11 titles with only 128 victories at the age of nearly 10 years old in front of the four people! Such efficiency is indeed admirable!
Among his 11 titles, he has won three consecutive Australian Open titles in 2019-2021, two Cincinnati Masters titles (achieving double gold masters), and 2021 Paris Masters champions.
In addition, he often wins awards such as the Dubai Race and the hometown event Belgrade, which Djokovic often participates in.
Did such a ranking surprise you? (Source: Tennis House Author: Luo ChengQiye)
