Tommy Paul faces a tough challenge against Daniil Medvedev. In their only previous encounter at the unofficial 'fifth Major', a semifinal showdown last year, the American had the opportunity to earn his first final appearance at the Masters 1000 event. But he couldn't stand a chance against his rival.

However, despite winning 1-6, 7-6(3), 6-2, Medvedev said after the match:

"Tommy just showed everyone how to beat me, how to play on the lines, full power. He was playing pretty unbelievably, and I didn't know what to do, so the only thing I could do is try to continue to search for solutions."

Thus, Paul still has a chance to seize the opportunity for revenge. He also eyes joining Taylor Fritz as the second American to be ranked in the ATP's world top 10. He told Tennis Channel after the commendable win over Cameron Norrie.

“I’m going back to work. Just trying to get better, just trying to improve on everything a little bit, to try and move up the rankings even more.”

The latest head-to-head between the two pre-quarterfinalists is 3-1 in the Russian's favor.
