Match on-going, Medvedev taking the first set 6-4, it wasn't a breeze though as Zverev was able to hold the score 4-4 until Medvedev took the last 2 points of the first set.
Daniil Medvedev played an incredible match, i missed the initial set and thought about wagging a bet on him considering his form this year and i first noticed him when he made a big mess when i waged a bet against him this year where he defeated Andy Murray, Milos Raonic and Wilfried Tsonga and had a really tough match against Rafael Nadal where Daniil Medvedev challenged him till the end. Congrats to the new champion.
As I have said in my many posts here, Medvedev, amongst the top breed of young players of today, has the chance to really break into the top 3. He is really on a Final streak, his last 6:
Events: Results:
Washington, D.C. L to Kyrgios
Montreal L to Nadal
Cincinnati W against Goffin
US Open L to Nadal
St. Petersburg W against Coric
Shanghai W against Zverev
He just need to break and win a Grand Slam next year to cement himself. I thought that there will be a 3rd set, but eventually won in Zverev 6-4, 6-1 in just over 70 minutes.
