Andriy Medvedev

Andriy Medvedev (born 31 August 1974 in Kiev) is a retired professional tennis player from Ukraine. Medvedev made a splash on the international tennis scene when, as a 17-year-old, he won titles in Genoa and Stuttgart. His most successful tournament was the Hamburg Masters (formerly the German Open), which he won three times.
In the late 1990s, Medvedev's form and results began to flounder until he unexpectedly reached the final of the 1999 French Open after having having defeated Pete Sampras and Gustavo Kuerten en route. Medvedev dominated the first two sets of the final against Andre Agassi before Agassi mounted a come-from-behind victory, which allowed him to complete a career Grand Slam. For Medvedev, this was a last hurrah, and he faded into obscurity shortly afterwards and retired from the tour in 2001.
One main rival of Medvedev's was Sergi Bruguera. While their head-to-head record ended deadlocked at five each, Bruguera was able to win their two most important matches—the semifinals and quarterfinals of the 1993 and 1994 French Opens.
Medvedev's junior career was the highlighted by winning the junior 1991 French Open.
