Medvedev, the fourth number in the ranking, defeated Djokovic convincingly with 6-3, 6-3, winning his second success in the tournament.
In the first set, Medvedev deprived the Serb of two services, and in the second one, which was enough to win the first number in two sets.
If Djokovic had won two sets, he would have a place in the semifinals. This year, Djokovic is looking to replicate the possibilities of the Swiss Roger Federer – six ATP final tournament trophies.
Medvedev won the semifinals with a victory, but Djokovic has to earn a place in Friday’s duel with Alexander Zverev from Germany (ATP 7), who won the debut of this tournament Diego Schwarzmann from Argentina in the first duel on Wednesday 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 ( ATP 9.).

In the first round, Nadal defeated Rublov 6-3, 6-4, but Tim defeated Cicip with 7-6 (7: 5), 4-6, 6-3.
