Daniil Medvedev advanced to the third round of the Mutua Madrid Open on Friday after Laslo Djere withdrew due to a left shoulder injury.
Seeded ninth, Medvedev is making his sixth Madrid appearance this fortnight and will next face Argentine lefty Juan Manuel Cerundolo. It will be their first Lexus ATP Head2Head meeting.
The World No. 10 in the PIF ATP Rankings holds a 14-8 season record, according to the Infosys ATP Win-Loss Index. Should Medvedev go one step further than last year’s quarter-final run in Madrid, he would become the fifth man to complete the set of semi-finals at all active ATP Masters 1000 events, alongside Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray. The 29-year-old Medvedev is seeking his first title since winning Rome in 2023.
Djere defeated Fabio Fognini in the opening round Wednesday and leaves Madrid with a 10-3 season record at Tour level. In February, he won the ATP 250 in Santiago.
