Medvedev launches offended rampage as star leaves match in wheelchair
It was one other action-packed day on the US Open on Thursday with 4 British gamers making it by to the third spherical, though Andy Murray was unable to hitch them. The former world No 1 was outclassed by Grigor Dimitrov to deliver an finish to his match.
Murray headed into the match crammed with confidence about the place his sport was at, insisting he was enjoying at an analogous stage to 2017 the place he was used to deep match runs. That has now grow to be an enormous hurdle for the British tennis celebrity to beat and one thing he’ll now have to attend till the 2024 Australian Open to attempt to change.
It was a distinct story for Katie Boulter, Jack Draper, Dan Evans and Cam Norrie. Evans has now arrange a tantalising third-round tie with No 1 seed and defending champion Carlos Alcaraz.
Draper pulled off an upset in beating No 17 seed Hubert Hurkacz whereas Boulter and Norrie comfortably progressed with wins over Wang Yafan and Hsu Yu-hsiou respectively. The third spherical matches get underway as we speak with a number of seeded gamers now assembly each other.
