Can Daniil Medvedev win a Grand Slam title now after conquering his maiden Masters 1000 title in Cincinnati? The Moscow native replied: "I'm sure I can win a Masters because I just did it, but winning a Grand Slam is different. At this moment I haven't been in the quarterfinal yet. So when somebody asked me in Montreal, I think, they asked actually about Montreal and US Open, I said, Well, in Montreal I'd be satisfied with the quarterfinal. Did better. In US Open, I will be satisfied, doesn't mean happy, with a quarterfinal. Of course depending on the draw and everything. So as I say, to reach my first quarterfinal will be good, and I take it match by match. If I will be in quarterfinal, I will try to do my best to win everything, but at this moment I need to take it step by step and just become better player every day."

On how it feels to crack top five rankings, Medvedev added: "Yeah, that's nice. I mean, I think I saw in the semis, I was looking at the live ranking, there is an application, and I was, like, Will I become 5 if I win the tournament? No, don't think about it. That's also, I mean, that's a huge achievement which I couldn't probably believe three weeks ago, because I just entered the top 10. When somebody was asking me, I was saying, Well, it's going to be good if I manage to stay there for some time, hopefully for long time. Now I'm top 5. Huge champions, like Zverev and Nishikori. That's huge."
