Meddy on the march 👣 A first grass win of 2021 for @DaniilMedwed, who beats Moutet 6-4 6-2 to reach the last 8 at @MallorcaChamps
Daniil Medvedev endures slow start to win against Moutet in Mallorca
ATPTuesday, 22 June 2021 at 16:32
Daniil Medvedev kicked off the Mallorca Championships in better fashion than he did the Halle event winning his first-round matchup.
Medvedev started his Mallorca Championships campaign with a straight-sets win over Corentin Moutet despite a slow start. It did not look good initially for Medvedev who actually enjoys playing on grass. The Russian was down 0-3 and then 1-4 before Medvedev went on a 5 game run to close out the first set with 6-4.
The Russian needed some time to adjust to his opponent and the conditions and once he did he completely took over the match. Moutet is not a good grass-court player and it showed.
The Russian attacked every 2nd serve of Moutet and he was able to win the majority of those points. That gave him plenty of opportunities to break Moutet which Medvedev did. On his own serve, he was superb dropping few points. All of that was enough for the 6-4 6-2 victory over the Frenchman.
Medvedev will play 5th seed Casper Ruud in the next round with the Norwegian winning already two matches at the event.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
