NEW YORK: Russia Daniil Medvedev ripped into the third round of Pablo Andujar 6-0, 6-4, 6-3 on Friday, his third victory was under two hours in the US Open.
The world number two held a Spanish driver who did not taste five points in the first set, only three mistakes were not delayed in an extraordinary stretch of games in his offer for a big title of a girl two years after he lost the final to Rafa Nadal.
Russia has not dropped a set of meadowing this year and showed a little moment of vulnerability on Friday.
He recovered from a double mistake on the second 10 set game with a pair of ace and fired 34 winners to Andujar 16 in all matches.
Andjar converts one of four chances of break points at the end of the third for wild applause from fans inside the Armstrong Louis Stadium.
However, it was a little late when the Australian open finalist was fired again with his own break to reach the match.
“The main positive is a win in three sets because Pablo fights well,” said Medvedev, who won the fourth Master’s degree 1000 months ago in Toronto.
“I played well and (me) was very happy with my level.” He faced potential challenges in the fourth round of 24th seed Briton and Evans, who beat the world number one Novak Djokovic in Monte Carlo in April and which was described by Medvedev as “very smart”.
“He did not have one shot which was a weapon, but he already had top players for years,” Medvedev told reporters.
“The way he chose the right moment to go to the internet, to slice, to make a dropshot.
I mean, the service isn’t big, but it’s hard to go back.
Great players.”
