Daniil Medvedev has enjoyed the budding rivalry between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic like everyone else, but said he hopes to crash their party at the US Open and play the role of disruptor this fortnight.<\/p>\n

World number one Alcaraz, the defending champion in New York, and second-ranked Djokovic, a 23-times major winner, have won the last five Grand Slams and created huge expectations for a possible US Open showdown in the final.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s great for tennis that we have these two guys playing against each other right now,\u201d Medvedev, the 2021 US Open champion, told reporters ahead of the year\u2019s final grand slam.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a great story, but then the tournament starts and hopefully we can – when I say \u2018we,\u2019 I mean me personally or someone else – we\u2019re going to try to beat them and stop them from playing each other.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsciously, I don\u2019t think about it. I just try to win. That\u2019s the most important (thing). But unconsciously, I feel like many times I was playing good in this role. Hopefully it can help me this week, these two weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Medvedev, 27, has won five titles this year with triumphs in Rotterdam, Doha, Dubai, Miami and Rome. The Russian world number three reached the Wimbledon semi-finals last month, losing to eventual champion Alcaraz.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that\u2019s normal we talk about them,\u201d added Medvedev, who beat Djokovic in the final to win the US Open title two years ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do think we still talk about me. I\u2019m not feeling too bad, but I\u2019m going to try. The goal is, after this US Open, that we talk about me, so I\u2019m going to try to do it.<\/p>\n

\u201cTwo years ago, I managed to play definitely one of, if not the best, match of my life. I want to try to do it again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Medvedev will begin his campaign against Hungary\u2019s Attila Balazs on Tuesday 29 August.<\/p>\n
