Medvedev walked the entire tournament distance fairly smoothly, without giving up a single set to his opponents. But it is worth noting that the Russian was very lucky with the net. Perhaps the most dangerous opponent of Daniel was his compatriot Andrei Rublev, whom he outplayed with a score of 7-6, 6-3, 7-6. The rest of opponents were much easier. The representative of Russia did not give them more than nine games. It is worth noting that last year Medvedev was one step away from winning this Major. But then he was opposed by Rafael Nadal. The Russian fought, but lost to the Spaniard in five games. Daniel almost defended his last year’s result. He just had to reach the final.
