Since his defeat in the round of 16 at Roland-Garros, the Russian has reached the finals of the preparatory grass tournaments at Wimbledon in 's-Hertogenbosch (defeat against the 205th world number Tim van Rijthoven) then in Halle (beaten by the 12th world number Hubert Hurkacz) and this time he gave in from the quarters.
Due to the exclusion of Russian and Belarusian players in retaliation for the war in Ukraine, Medvedev will not participate in the Wimbledon tournament which begins on Monday.
For his part, Bautista will face Friday for a place in the final in Mallorca the Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor (53rd) or the Swiss from the qualifications Antoine Bellier (303rd).
