Hamad Medjedovic continues to have the week of his life at the Barcelona Open 2026. The Serb defeated Nuno Borges 7-6 and 6-2 in the quarterfinals, in a match he managed to pull through after a fiercely contested first set, decisively closing out in the second set.

With this victory, Medjedovic now has five consecutive wins since the qualifying rounds, consolidating an unstoppable momentum in the Catalan capital. The 22-year-old Balkan player is showcasing aggressive and solid baseline tennis. These semifinals also mark the best result of his career in an ATP 500 event.

The best week of his life

After the match, Medjedovic did not hide his satisfaction, aware that he is going through a crucial moment in his sports career. “I am quite proud of the work I have done this week. It is the best streak of my life so far. Playing in an ATP 500 is honestly much bigger than playing a 250. And it feels amazing to have won so many points decisively and to be playing, I believe, the best tennis of my life this week. I am very, very happy, proud, and eager to continue”.

The Serb, coached by Spanish Jorge Aguirre —former coach of Alejandro Davidovich—, is finding an especially dangerous version of himself in Barcelona. His forehand, executed with total confidence, is making a difference and becoming a fearsome weapon for his opponents.

A shot that sums up his confidence

That confidence also translated into specific moments of the match, like a drop shot that even surprised Medjedovic himself and reflects his current state. “Truth be told, yes. I believe it was at 4-1, right?, with a break point”, he commented after the match. “I think it was the craziest drop shot of my life. It was just like that, I played it and it came out perfectly. So yeah, it's amazing”.

In full swing and with unbeatable sensations, Medjedovic has become one of the great revelations of the tournament. His breakthrough in Barcelona not only speaks of a great moment in time, but also of a player who aims to start establishing himself as a real threat in the circuit. Talent, he has in abundance.
