NEW YORK - Love him or hate him, Daniil Medvedev will play for a first Grand Slam title after grinding out a 7-6 6-4 6-3 win over Grigor Dimitrov at the U.S. Open on Friday.
Medvedev has a complicated relationship with the Flushing Meadows crowds, who have cast him as a U.S. Open bad boy due to his on-court antics, but the fifth seeded Russian has been as good as gold where it matters — on the scoreboard. The first Russian man to reach a Grand Slam final since Marat Safin at the 2005 Australian Open, Medvedev will play Rafa Nadal for the title after the three-time champion ended Italian Matteo Berrettini’s surprise run.After spending much of the U.S. Open playing the role of villain, the lanky Medvedev has tried to cast himself as a more fan-friendly figure, distancing himself from the gestures that turned the New York crowds against him.
With both men fighting for a spot in their first Grand Slam final, every point was contested as if a trophy were riding on it, particularly in a tense opening set that stretched to an hour before Medvedev snatched it in a tie-break.
