— The match was very tense and interesting. Medvedev set up quite successfully and played well on the right. Both opponents had a good serve, Hurkacz was even somewhat stronger in this. Daniil both lost and won back serve. He is more stable in individual parts, and also more active in his forehand and backhand shots.

Our tennis player attacked more often and spread the balls better, forcing Hurkacz to make desperate throws to the ball. The match was dramatic and interesting. Medvedev’s advantage had its effect. It was more stable and accurate. A well-deserved and convincing victory. Danya showed character and played until the end, “Championship” quotes Yanchuk.
