Russia’s tennis star Daniil Medvedev is once again living up to the expectations in the China Open.
The 27-year-old has already booked his place in the semifinal of the event after beating France’s Ugo Humbert in the quarterfinal with a score of 6-4, 3-6, 6-1.
Medvedev's performance in the ongoing competition is not a surprising one, considering how he has performed while playing on the hard court.
The current world number three has played in the semifinal or beyond in each of the ATP events played on the hard court.
Recently, he played in the final of the US Open where he came second best against the current world number one Serbia's legendary tennis star Novak Djokovic in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 7-6, 6-3.
Medvedev is now set to face off the world number 10 Germany’s Alexander Zverev in the last-four clash of the tournament on Tuesday.
Both players have faced off 16 times at the highest level where Medvedev has a slight edge with nine victories to his name compared to the seven wins of the 26-year-old.
Interestingly, on the hard court, Zverev has a better record while playing against the Moscow-born where he won four times compared to three victories of the 2021 US Open winner.
