Three years later, the same protagonists in the US Open final. As in 2021, there is a lot of history involving a match that replaces the poster favorite. The Russian Daniel Medvedev27 years old and world No. 3, won the final between the defender of the crown, Carlos Alcarazand Novak Djokovic. He is a specialist in breaking normality. It was enough that a celebration was prepared for anarchic Moscow to act as spoilsport. He wants.
It already happened in 2021, with an exhibition similar to the Alcaraz In the semifinals of this edition, he lost Djokovic for a triple 6-4. A narrative of delivery, of returning each ball with more power and intention than it originally possessed. This left the Serbian without a victory to complete the Grand Slam in the same season.
Djokovic, 36 years old, is on another mission with legendary qualities. He didn’t close it out at the first attempt at Wimbledon, he again had a chance to reach the Australian record of 24 ‘good’ Margaret Court. A rather cursed figure with an antecedent of serena williams that’s one when the forecast says otherwise.
This is his 36th Grand Slam final, the tenth in New York, where his percentage has dropped: three wins (2011, 2015 and 2018), six losses. For Medvedev it will be fifth overall, third at the US Open. You will not have your nightmare in front of you Rafael Nadalexecutioner in the 2019 edition and, especially, in the Australian Open 2022. A stage where he was previously left without a prize who tomorrow will be world number one again, Novak Djokovic.
Two heavyweights for a great rivalry, even if he wasn’t the dreamer. This Sunday, 10 pm central European time, 3 pm in New York, which has had its roof covered for the last two days due to rain.
