Daniil Medvedev has looked in firm control in his previous two matches at the US Open, beating both players quite comfortably. Despite dropping a set against O’Connell in the second-round matchup, he would be expecting to not let his next opponent, Sebastian Baez, do the same thing to him when they face off against one another in the third round tomorrow.

This is the first time Medvedev will face the experienced Argentinian, and Baez has impressed the tennis fanbase with his brand of tennis in the last few months. He has won back-to-back titles at the Generali Open and the Winston-Salem Open, just ahead of the US Open. He is yet to drop a single set in the ongoing US Open, and this is going to be a major test for the Russian, who is eyeing his first Grand Slam title since his 2021 US Open win.
