Daniil Medvedev
23 years old, 5th ranked Russian is not stopping to surprise everyone. It’s hard to even imagine how does he play that well while this will be his 23rd game in a month. Knowing that he’s reached 3 straight finals in ATP Masters and now doing the same at US Open Grand Slam is incredible. There were a lot of speculations about Medvedev’s health. He’s admitted that he might not be at his 100% due to some minor injuries and lack of rest. Medvedev’s serve has been working throughout the whole tournament and it feels like everything is going his way. It’s hard to expect him to win tomorrow given the circumstances. However, if he manages to do that, this might be one of the most iconic runs of all time.
Rafael Nadal
33 years old, currently 2nd ranked Spaniard is no stranger at this US Open tournament. He’s managed to win it 3 times already and is going for his 4th victory. Nadal might get a little bit lucky because he’s avoided both Federer and Djokovic and had to play against weaker opposition. That’s why he’s just been steamrolling through everyone and looked like a clear favourite for the tournament since the Djoko and Federer dropped out. He’s playing his own style and it doesn’t really look like anyone can manage to stop him. Given the circumstances for tomorrow’s match, Nadal will be a favourite once again.
