Down-the-line.ru will broadcast a live online text program: Tennis. APR. Cincinnati. 1/8 final. Zverev-Medvedev. Direct

World No. 3 Medvedev has started his campaign for a second Western & Southern Open title against Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti. It was a rematch the pair had previously met at the Canadian Open last week.

In the first set, Medvedev gave only three games, and in the second he played even better and lost only 2 games. Medvedev finished 49-10 this season and 15-5 in Cincinnati, where he reached the semifinals last year.

The only downside to the game was that the 27-year-old threw in the first game, but then the game was one-sided. Medvedev won the 23rd Masters 1000 tournament in 2023, becoming the leader of the round in this indicator.

Meanwhile, Zverev, after beating Grigor Dimitrov in the first round, beat Japan’s Yoshihito Nishioki.

The 26-year-old German won the first set 7-5 and then Zverev won the second set 6-4, converting three of his 12 break points in the game to claim his 35th victory of the season in 1 hour and 57 minutes.

Zverev, fresh from winning his first title of the season in Hamburg, is now 7-6 in Cincinnati.

Medvedev won 9 out of 15 meetings with Zverev. He has won the last three fights with the German.
