MEDVEDEV APPLAUDING CROWD STORY: A cramping Daniil Medvedev battled through physical discomfort and marathon rallies to defeat Alex de Minaur 6-4 6-4 on Friday (October 10), reaching the Shanghai Masters semi-finals for the first time since his 2019 title triumph. Medvedev's victory over the Australian seventh seed marks a milestone 50th career top-10 win for the former U.S. Open champion and sets up a last-four clash with Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech. The match between Medvedev and De Minaur showcased two of tennis's flattest hitters engaged in gruelling baseline exchanges, with some rallies exceeding 20 shots, before the Russian prevailed in just under two hours despite cramps. The victory extends Medvedev's strong Asian swing form, having reached the semi-finals of the China Open — where he retired with cramps — before arriving in Shanghai.
