It is fitting that the contract extension comes on the heels of Mededev's triumph at the Paris masters.

"The crocodile brand, faithful to its values, made the wager to accompany the rising star in the world of tennis," Lacoste said. "Indeed, Daniil Medvedev represents this talented young generation’s audacity, which now regularly features in the last four of the season’s biggest tournaments. His style of play and his tenacity on the court allow him to shake up the tennis world hierarchy, as he demonstrated once again last week by winning the title in Paris."

Medvedev will begin his quest for the Nitto ATP Finals crown on Monday against Alexander Zverev.
