Australian Open: Daniil Medvedev beats Maxime Cressy to reach quarter-finals



In the past six majors, the man who lost the Australian Open final has reached the quarter-finals.

The venue is Melbourne Park.

The coverage includes daily radio commentaries on Radio 5 Live Sports Extra, live text commentaries on the website and app, and TV highlights from the middle Saturday.

The man who is expected to win the Australian Open is demonstrated again by his win in the Melbourne heat.

The Russian second seed defeated the American in straight sets to reach the quarter-finals.

Medvedev needed his ninth break point to take control of the fourth set and the match.

I've played harder matches but this was long. He said it wasn't easy.

The fourth set was crazy. He hit the line every time I had a break point. I couldn't return them.

The 25-year-old goes on to face Canadian ninth seed Felix Auger-Aliassime, who saw off Marin Cilic of Croatia in his fourth-round match.

Auger-Aliassime defeated Dan Evans in the previous round.

Italian 11th seed Jannik Sinner also advanced, winning in straight sets against Australian Alex de Minaur.

The 20-year-old will play the Greek fourth seed or the American 20th seed in the last eight after defeating the 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884

Halep was knocked out of the Australian Open.
Salisbury and Ram are in the quarter-finals.

It was the most unlucky day of my life.

The highest seed in the men's singles is the man who won his maiden Grand Slam title at the US Open, Dimitry Medvedev.

The Serbian world number one was not allowed to play at the park after he was deported from Australia.

In his second-round match against home favourite Nick Kyrgios, Medvedev dropped a set, but this battle against world number 70 Cressy left him even more frustrated.

During the third set, Medvedev needed treatment on his hip, as well as Cressy.

After winning the first two sets, it seemed that Medvedev was on his way to the quarter-finals when he led by a mini-break in the third set tie-break.

Cressy won both of the points on Medvedev's serve.

The serve-and-volleying American put away a forehand at the net and then thumped a winner past the Russian to force a fourth set.

For the first time since the opening set, Medvedev was able to force a break point in a lengthy third game but was unable to take it.

The frustration began to show.

The Russian complained at the changeover that his opponent was taking too long with his serves and that the 25-second shot clock was not being applied properly.

That annoyance was followed by a 45 second hold to love and three break opportunities for a 3-2 lead.

He has won nine matches and reached the first final of his career in a warm-up event before the Grand Slam.

Cressy showed why he has been successful by maintaining his composure and playing smart.

The most unlucky day of his life was when Cressy survived two break points in the seventh game.

The pressure finally told in the 11th game when Medvedev broke and served out the victory in three hours and 30 minutes.
