Medvedev d. Zverev 6-4 6-1 to win his 4th title of 2019 and his second masters title.

That's some few months for Medvedev. Overtakes Fed in this season's race and way to go yet but could he ultimately be the one to finally take the #1 rankings spot with it coming up to 16 years wirh it being held by one of the 'big 4"?

Or maybe in time Zverev will seriously get it together again and on a consistent high level basis and be the one?

Ultimately it is about which of Medvedev, Thiem, Zverev, Tsitsipas, Berretini, etc can hack it in slams. Medvedev and Thiem look most likely, currently. 2020 though is a year for them all to step up.
