Hamad Medjedovic continues to sign the week of his life at the Barcelona Open 2026. The Serbian defeated Nuno Borges 7-6 and 6-2 in the quarterfinals, in a match that he managed to overcome after a very contested first set and decisively won in the second set.
With this victory, Medjedovic now has five consecutive wins since the qualifying rounds, consolidating an unstoppable dynamic in the Catalan capital. The 22-year-old Balkan player is displaying an aggressive and solid game from the baseline. These semifinals also represent the best result of his career in an ATP 500 tournament.

The best week of his life
After the match, Medjedovic did not hide his satisfaction, aware that he is going through a key 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 an ATP 500 is, sincerely, much bigger than playing a 250. And it feels amazing to have won so many points clearly and to be playing, I believe, the best tennis of my life this week. I am very, very happy, proud, and looking forward to continue," he said.
Coached by Spanish Jorge Aguirre, former coach of Alejandro Davidovich, the Serbian is finding in Barcelona an especially dangerous version of himself. His forehand, executed with total confidence, is making a difference and becoming a formidable 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, reflecting his current state. "Actually, yes. I think 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 perfect. So, yeah, it's amazing."
In full swing and with unbeatable feelings, Medjedovic has become one of the great revelations of the tournament. His breakthrough in Barcelona not only speaks of a great specific moment but also of a player who wants to start establishing himself as a real threat on the circuit. Quality, he has plenty.
