Hubert Hurkacz came to Wimbledon with only one win since his triumph in Miami which makes his comeback win over Medvedev even more impressive.
The Polish player was able to find some of the magic from Miami at SW19 winning several matches in a row and reaching the Wimbledon quarterfinals. He reached it by defeating Medvedev who had a 2-1 lead when the match got suspended. When they return it was Hurkacz who dominated from start to finish.
After the match he said:
“Playing on this unbelievable court, probably the best in the world, with an amazing crowd is really special. Daniil is an unbelievable player. We battled so hard on No. 2 Court. So to win is incredible… I knew I needed to get off to a strong start today and I think I did a pretty good job.”
The next opponent for Hurkacz is Roger Federer which in itself is a tough job. Playing him in Wimbledon is even more tough considering the iconic status Federer has at SW19. Asked about that he said:
“Roger, what he does, the titles he has won, is a real inspiration. I will be hoping to get a little bit of support tomorrow.”
