Nesta quinta-feira, Daniil Medvedev precisou de 2h32 e de uma virada para garantir vaga nas quartas do ATP 500 de Viena: perdeu o primeiro set para Cameron Norrie, reagiu e fechou em 4/6, 6/3 e 7/6(1).
Atual número 5 do mundo, ele chegou à 51ª vitória da temporada, em que já levantou quatro troféus. Campeão em Viena em 2022, busca a segunda taça na Áustria e terá pela frente o canhoto Adrian Mannarino, francês de 38 anos e 73º do ranking.
O histórico é favorável ao russo: 5 a 4 no confronto direto, com vitória nos três últimos duelos. Mannarino passou pelo qualifying e garantiu a vaga ao bater o tcheco Jakub Mensik, na quarta-feira, com 6/4 e 7/5.
Aos 30 anos, Medvedev soma 25 títulos na carreira, 23 deles em piso duro. O US Open de 2021 veio justamente quando barrou Novak Djokovic na tentativa de completar o Grand Slam no calendário; o ATP Finals de 2020 ficou marcado por superar os então três primeiros do ranking — Djokovic, Rafael Nadal e Dominic Thiem. Ele também passou 16 semanas na liderança em 2022 e ganhou seis Masters 1000.
O moscovita emendou o sexto resultado positivo seguido depois do bicampeonato do ATP 250 de Almaty, na semana passada, e ocupa a quinta posição na corrida para o Finals.
Quem também avançou foi Tommy Paul. O norte-americano, 14º do mundo, precisou de apenas 48 minutos e aplicou duplo 6/1 em Luciano Darderi. Chegou à 46ª vitória da temporada, novo recorde pessoal — antes, eram 45, em 2024 —, e agora lidera por 3 a 1 o histórico contra o italiano. Cabeça de chave 7, o tenista de 29 anos espera o vencedor de Carlos Alcaraz, segundo favorito, e Nikoloz Basilashvili.
