Daniil Medvedev vs. Rafael Nadal 9/8/19 8:04 PM Sven Sharp Medvedev had multiple cramps during this US Open but seems to have got his problems under control. In the semifinals against Dimitrov at least nothing was visible from convulsions. Daniil Medvedev vs. Rafael Nadal 9/8/19 8:02 PM Sven Scharf Nadal, however, scored only one goal throughout the tournament - in the round of 16 against Marin Cilic. However, the Spaniard profited once from an injury-related cancellation. Second-round opponent Kokkonakis could not compete in the game. Daniil Medvedev vs. Rafael Nadal 9/8/19 8:00 PM Sven Scharf What was the way of the two opponents in the final? Medvedev made it only twice in three sets. In round one against the Indian Prajnesh Gunneswaran and in the semi-final against Grigor Dimitrov. In between, the Russian won four times in four rounds, including against the German Dominik Koepfer in the eighth and Stan Wawrinka in the quarterfinals. Daniil Medvedev vs. Rafael Nadal 9/8/19 7:55 PM Sven Scharf In less than five minutes the players come to the court in the Arthur Ashe Stadium. Daniil Medvedev vs. Rafael Nadal 9/8/19 7:43 PM Sven Scharf Nadal has already won the US Open three times and would win his 19th Grand Slam title in a win. For Medvedev it is the first major final. But the Russian is something like the man of the hour on the tour. The 23-year-old has reached the final in New York under difficult conditions. In the third round, he took to the audience, showing the fans during his game against Feliciano Lopez the middle finger. For the rest of the game, the Russian was booed. Also in the rest of the tournament, the New Yorkers were always against him. Daniil Medvedev vs. Rafael Nadal 9/8/19 7:03 PM Sven Scharf The game today is only the second duel of these two players. In the final of the Rogers Cup a month ago Nadal won clearly 6: 3, 6: 0. That it is similar today, probably expect only a few. But Nadal is of course the big favorite. However, nobody has won more games on the tour this year (50) than the Russian, who is currently number five in the world. Medvedev won two tournaments in 2019 - in Sofia and the Masters in Cincinnati three weeks ago, both on Hardcourt. Daniil Medvedev vs. Rafael Nadal 9/8/19 6:56 PM Sven Scharf Welcome to the live ticker for the men's US Open Final. At about 10 pm, Rafael Nadal and Daniil Medvedev play the last Grand Slam title of the year. I hope you enjoy the game as much as I do. Show more Ticker Liveblog Software
