- Medvedev beats Zverev 7-6 (7), 6-4 and secures semi-final spot
- Spaniard rebounds from opening defeat to see off Rublev
Daniil Medvedev became the first player through to the semi-finals with victory over Germany’s Alexander Zverev, after Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz got back on track at the ATP Finals with victory over a tormented Andrey Rublev.
Zverev has won the title twice, in 2018 and 2021, but is in danger of missing out on a semi-final spot and will be kicking himself after some costly errors against Medvedev. He led 4-1 in the opening set tiebreak and missed a volley. Then he had a set point but misfired a forehand into the bottom of the net to let Medvedev off the hook.
