At his most dominant, Daniil Medvedev seems invincible. The Russian, number two in the world, was for Pablo Andújar this Friday at the US Open. The Spanish could not do anything to avoid defeat, beyond fighting so that at least it was not blushing. He was on his way to being, after Medvedev’s initial rosco, which had to be used with a little more substance later to win by 6-0, 6-4 and 6-2 in one hour and 56 minutes. Waiting for a rival for the second round: Popyrin or Evans.
Despite the sweep, Andújar, 35, had a good time and took a breath of the typical New York show atmosphere when he asked for the support of the public after finally breaking the serve of the Muscovite in the penultimate game of the match. This was not too funny and closed the game to the rest and blank. So is he.
