Fifth time lucky: Daniil Medvedev posts maiden win at Roland Garros

India TV News  

At his fifth attempt, Daniil Medvedev has finally won a match at Roland Garros. The second-seeded Russian, who lost in the first round on each of his four previous appearances on the Parisian red clay, claimed a maiden win at the Grand Slam event by defeating Alexander Bublik 6-3, 6-3, 7-5. Medvedev has often struggled on the slow surface — he has a 12-20 record on clay — and much prefers hard courts. “Hopefully I can achieve something big.” A two-time Grand slam runner-up, Medvedev is bidding to become the third Russian man to win a major after Yevgeny Kafelnikov and Marat Safin. Earlier, Italian rising star Jannik Sinner saved a match point in his opening match at the French Open before rallying past Frenchman Pierre-Hugues Herbert 6-1, 4-6, 6-7, 7-5, 6-4.
