Medvedev, Seppi Among Day 1 Winners In Winston-Salem

Spoiler:

Six first-round matches are completed on Sunday at the Winston-Salem Open

All eyes are on Winston-Salem, North Carolina, this week as the ATP World Tour descends on the 250-level event at the home of Wake Forest University.

Daniil Medvedev set a highly-anticipated second-round clash against Alex de Minaur at the Winston-Salem Open, advancing with a 6-4, 6-4 win over Mirza Basic on Sunday. The Russian enters the hard-court tournament on the heels of an ATP World Tour Masters 1000 breakthrough in Toronto, where he reached the Round of 16 as a qualifier.

Medvedev is joined by Spaniards Guillermo Garcia-Lopez and Roberto Carballes Baena as Day 1 winners. Garcia-Lopez edged Marcos Baghdatis 7-6(2), 6-4, while his countryman ousted Guido Pella 6-4, 6-2 in just one hour and 22 minutes. The win was Carballes Baena's first on hard courts in nearly one year. He faces another Spaniard, 13th seed Albert Ramos-Vinolas, in the second round.

In other action, Italian veteran Andreas Seppi made efficient work of Joao Sousa, dispatching the Portuguese 7-5, 6-4 in one hour and 23 minutes. He drew level in their FedEx ATP Head2Head series at 2-all, having also prevailed this year in Rotterdam. Also in Seppi's quarter of the draw, Jan-Lennard Struff moved into the second round with a 7-6(5), 6-3 win over Benoit Paire and awaits fourth seed Marco Cecchinato next.

Pablo Carreno Busta, champion in 2016, leads the field in Winston-Salem, with Steve Johnson and Sam Querrey the top home hopes.

Russian Daniil Medvedev and Japan's Taro Daniel will face off in Friday's other semi-final. Medvedev beat American Ryan Harrison 7-6(4), 6-4, and Daniel came back from a set and a break down to knock out Chile's Nicolas Jarry 4-6, 6-2, 6-1. The Japanese right-hander played two full matches on Wednesday to reach the quarter-finals.

“Another really tough one. [Medvedev] has been accumulating a lot of experience on the tour,” Daniel said.

Medvedev reached his fourth ATP World Tour semi-final and his first since January when he won his maiden title at the Sydney International. “It was a great match for me. I played quite good tennis I think. You can always do something better but I think it was a solid match,” he said.

Dominant Daniil: Medvedev Masters Winston-Salem

Spoiler:

When Daniil Medvedev was leading Mirza Basic 6-4, 5-0 in the first round of the Winston-Salem Open, he had an interesting thought race through his mind.

"I said, 'I'm so tired'," Medvedev told ESPN. "It was so hot. It was so humid. I was like, 'How am I going to play six matches if I need to win the tournament?' So I thought okay, this is not my tournament. And it became 5-4, his serve, so I thought, 'Okay, that's probably it, that's not my tournament'."

Yet that did not stop the Russian from dominating the field, defeating American Steve Johnson 6-4, 6-4 on Saturday to lift his second ATP World Tour trophy.

“It feels amazing,” Medvedev said. “At the beginning of the week, I didn’t think it was going to be possible because I was playing quite good but I didn’t feel I was at the right form to win a title. I started quite slow the tournament I would say. I could’ve even lost the first match, and finally I won the tournament without dropping a set, which is quite an amazing achievement and I’m really happy about it.”

It was all Medvedev all the time in North Carolina this week, as the 22-year-old won all 12 sets he played to become the first Russian champion in tournament history. The 6’6” right-hander was not broken in the semi-finals or the championship match, extending his FedEx ATP Head2Head series lead against Johnson to 4-1. Not bad for someone who was unsure he'd make it through the event in the first round.

"It's crazy," he said.

Medvedev showed his promise a year ago when he qualified for the inaugural Next Gen ATP Finals in Milan, where he reached the semi-finals before losing to eventual winner Hyeon Chung in five sets. And in the second week of this season, he qualified before claiming his maiden ATP World Tour title in Sydney.


The last time the Russian played Johnson, in Eastbourne earlier this year, the American won in just 76 minutes and created eight break points. But Johnson struggled to make any inroads on Medvedev’s serve, earning just one — in the match's final game — on a sunny day in Winston-Salem.

Medvedev had few problems on his return, though. Johnson entered the final having won 37 of 38 service games in the tournament. But the World No. 57 broke this year’s Houston and Newport titlist twice — once per set — to earn the victory after one hour, 24 minutes. The Russian adds 250 ATP Rankings points and $92,905 in prize money.

It was clear from the early going that the match would depend on Johnson’s ability to get out of backhand-to-backhand rallies, pitting his knifing slice against Medvedev’s low-flying two-hander. The American’s best shot is his forehand, but the champion did a great job of keeping the home favourite pinned in the backhand corner. And when Johnson did dance around a backhand to hit a forehand, shots were typically well below his waist, making them difficult to attack.

"He played really well. Didn't make many errors, and unfortunately, it wasn't my best day of tennis. But that's life," Johnson said. "I didn't find a way to get it done on some of the big points and hopefully I'll clean up a few things when I play on Monday at the US Open."

Johnson was trying to become the ninth player since 2010 to claim a tour-level trophy on all three trophies in one season, and the first American to do so since Sam Querrey in 2010. The World No. 34 earns 150 points and $52,895.

"Hopefully we'll get up to New York and have a great couple weeks," Johnson said on court after the match. "Maybe I'll finish that trifecta up in New York."

Did You Know?
Medvedev is the second Winston-Salem champion in a row to win the title without dropping a set. Roberto Bautista Agut claimed all 10 of his sets in 2017.

In other action, 2017 Next Gen ATP Finals competitors Borna Coric and Daniil Medvedev opened Day 3 with efficient wins, setting a third-round encounter. Coric defeated Roberto Carballes Baena 7-6(4), 6-2, 6-3, equalling his result from a year ago, while Medvedev continued his winning ways with 6-4, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 win over Stefanos Tsitsipas.

Coric has won multiple matches in a tournament for the first time since lifting his first grass-court trophy at the Gerry Weber Open in Halle in June. Up to a career-high No. 20 in the ATP Rankings, he leads their FedEx ATP Head2Head series 2-1. The Croatian claimed a four-set meeting in Milan and a 6-2, 6-3 decision just two weeks ago in Cincinnati.

Medvedev, meanwhile, extended his win streak to eight straight following his triumph at the Winston-Salem Open, benefitting from 64 unforced errors by Tsitsipas. The Russian is riding a wave of momentum, having taken 18 of his past 19 sets played.

Eighth-seeded Russian Daniil Medvedev needed only 67 minutes to defeat Joao Sousa 6-4, 6-1. The two-time tour-level titlist was clinical in important moments, converting each of his four break-point chances, to score his 30th match win in 49 tour-level contests this season. Medvedev will meet Mikhail Kukushkin or Denis Istomin in the second round.
