The 26-year-old beat Miomir Kecmanovic 6-0, 6-3 and is now in the last eight. There he meets Karen Khachanov, who defeated Jack Draper 6-4, 6-2.
After his hard-fought advancement at the beginning of the tournament against Lorenzo Sonego (who had given up for Medvedev at a score of 7:6, 2:1), Medvedev now had significantly fewer problems, the one-sided encounter lasted only 1 hour and 7 minutes. The man from Russia used a total of three of his seven break chances, fending off the only one for Kecmanovic.
Djokovic back on Thursday
Medvedev is seeded 3rd in Adelaide, behind Novak Djokovic and Felix Auger-Aliassime. While the Djoker started the tournament quite relaxed yesterday , "FAA" was already out against Alexei Popyrin.
Djokovic is scheduled again tomorrow, then against Quentin Halys.
In a possible semi-final it could then go against Medvedev.
