Tennis. US Open. 1/8 final. Medvedev – From minor. Direct
In the second match week of the US Open (US Open Championship), only three representatives of Russia managed to break through: Daria Kasatkina – in women’s singles, Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev – in men’s singles. All three will play their matches on Monday, September 4. Dasha, late on the night of the 5th, will have a duel against Arina Sobolenko and it will be a very tough match for the Russian with the tournament’s second seed. Andrei will be opposed to the Briton Draper from the second hundred, and his Russian is forced to pass. But Medvedev will have a very principled game against an opponent who has beaten Daniil twice in the past year.
Australian of Spanish origin, Alex de Minor is now on the verge of ascending his career. Never before has a tennis player climbed so high in the ATP rankings. In LIVE mode, it already occupies the 12th position. Although the most successful year for Alex in terms of titles was the 2019 season. Then De Minor won three tournaments, but they were with a minimum mark. Already this season, the 24-year-old Australian reached a new career high, reaching the Masters final for the first time. De Minor’s progress is evident, Alex is in great form which has helped him beat Medvedev twice in the last 10 months.
The first time was in the Thousand of Paris (2nd round) in November 2022. Then the Australian beat the representative of the top 5 for the first time in his career, on the 19th attempt – 6:4, 2: 6, 7:5. Less than a month ago, Medvedev and De Minor met in the quarter-finals of the Masters in Toronto. In the first set, Daniil led 5:2, but failed to qualify for the match and lost to the Australian in the tie-break. The Russian also led with a break in the second set, but again lost the advantage and played until the opponent’s match point, on which he scored a double – 6:7, 5: 7. So, from a psychological point of view, De Minor approaches the upcoming fight with a better mood and better memories than Daniil. Indeed, prior to last year’s Masters in Paris, Alex had suffered four straight defeats to Medvedev.
So far, Daniil has held the current US Open without serious failures, but the Russians’ rivals weren’t very strong either. In the person of De Minor, Russia’s first racket for the first time in this Major will face a noted tennis player, who, by the way, is already becoming uncomfortable for Daniil.
Well, a very exciting and principled duel awaits us, in which any tennis player can win. Bookmakers give preference to the Russian – the odds of his victory are 1.41. Fewer people believe in the success of De Minor (2.91 points), but no doubt Alex will give our tennis player a serious fight.
