Speaking on Prime Video, Mark Petchey identified that Medvedev can be much more annoyed by having play suspended at 4-5. It leaves the 27-year-old needing to serve to remain within the set on the resumption of play after he beforehand requested to cease when he was within the lead.

"Medvedev is going to be probably the one that is going to come out of this the worst in terms of mentally, disappointed he even had to play the game at 4-3," Petchey defined. "When he had the break, he was disappointed with Mo’s decision to make him serve, he didn’t want to play.

 "Then he type of bought his method to cease at four-apiece and in the event that they find yourself having to go off right here, to return again and serve at 4-5 this has made his passage extraordinarily troublesome and Tsitsipas has navigated this rather a lot higher."
