Daniil Medvedev continues to add victories and good feelings in this final stretch of the season. All this, despite a challenging debut at ATP Vienna, where he had to face the accumulated fatigue from his week at ATP Almaty and an always unexpected opponent like Nuno Borges. The Russian could have closed the match in two sets, but wasted the pair of match points he had in the second set, needing to finish the job in the last and decisive set to take the victory by 6-4, 6-7(9), 6-2, after two hours and 20 minutes of play. The Moscow native is already in the Swiss tournament's round of 16, where he awaits Corentin Moutet, whom he defeated three days ago in the final of Kazakhstan.

This is an automatic translation. You can read the original news, Medvedev suda ante Borges en su debut en Viena, pero sigue de dulce y se vuelve a ver con Moutet
