Daniil Medvedev has been awarded the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships title on Saturday afternoon after Tallon Griekspoor was forced to withdraw due to an injury.
This is Medvedev's second Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships title in four years.
Griekspoor, who suffered a left hamstring injury during his semi-final victory over Andrey Rublev on Friday, was deemed unfit to play in the ATP 500 Men’s Final following a medical assessment.
"Not how I want to win a final. Hoping the injury for Griekspoor is not too bad and wishing him a speedy recovery," Medvedev wrote on X.
