Medvedev in 8th without forcing
(Miami) Daniel Medvedev, 2and world, dismissed without forcing the Spaniard Pedro Martinez (47and) 6-3, 6-4 to reach 8are final of the Miami Masters 1000 where he can recover the place of world N.1.
“The courts are very slow, so games can go on for a long time. I managed to make fewer mistakes in important moments, to serve a little better. The margin was not big, but I managed to win and I’m happy about it,” commented the Russian.
He will face the American Jenson Brooksby (39and) who eliminated another Spaniard, Roberto Bautista (17and), 6-3, 5-7, 6-4, to try to reach the quarterfinals, his best result in the Florida tournament already achieved last year.
It was precisely Bautista who had eliminated him in 2021. But this year, the Spaniard who led 4-0 in the decisive set conceded six consecutive games and allowed the American, who had already reached 8are in Indian Wells, to qualify.
To recover the world throne, which he had occupied two weeks before handing it over to Novak Djokovic on March 21, Medvedev will have to reach the semi-finals.
Against Martinez, he didn’t play at his best, but he was so dominant in his commitment that he didn’t give his opponent any hope.
The latter just took advantage of a surprising but short slump from Medvedev to unbreak in the second set. The winner of the last US Open, however, found his rhythm to win in 1:24.
