Medvedev beats fellow Russian Andrey Rublev in straight sets amid steamy conditions in New York
Nine times Rublev has contested a Grand Slam quarter-final, losing each one with Medvedev also knocking him out at the same stage of the 2020 US Open and 2021 Australian Open.
“The only good thing I see in these conditions is that both suffer,” said Medvedev. “Usually there is not one that suffers so it's tough for both of us. It was an ominous start to the match for Rublev with Medvedev 25-0 at Flushing Meadows after winning the first set. Twice in the second they would trade breaks before Medvedev again was able to gain the upper hand with one more break.
