Australian Open 2022: Daniel Medvedev advances to semifinals; results, schedule, scores

This year’s first Grand Slam tournament, the Australian Open, is held here. Over 60 of the world’s best tennis players play at Melbourne Park. However, world No. 1 men’s tennis player Novak Djokovic is not among them.

Tennis star, No. 1 seed at the Australian Open, lost an appeal to the Australian government An earlier ruling on Sunday morning’s cancellation of his visa. As a result, Djokovic was forced to leave the country after a three-judge panel ruled in favor of the Australian government. In addition, the Australian government could still grant Djokovic a three-year entry ban.

It is claimed that Djokovic’s failure to get vaccinated would pose a risk to Australia’s public health and “could backfire with the vaccination efforts of the rest of Australia”.

Djokovic has won the Australian Open nine times before and is looking for his 21st career Grand Slam title. The 34-year-old is currently tied with Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer at the 2022 Australian Open for the most Grand Slam titles in the history of the sport.

With Djokovic out, world No. 2 Daniel Medvedev is the favorite at the Australian Open and has so far met high expectations. The Russian, who has lost just one set in three rounds, will face American Maxime Cresci in the fourth set.

Fellow Russian Andrei Rublev did not share Medvedev’s success as the No. 5 seed fell shockingly to Marin Cilic in the third round.

last year’s women’s champion Naomi Osaka was eliminated in the third round After falling to unseeded Amanda Anisimova. Osaka’s loss wasn’t the only surprising third-round result on the women’s side, as No. 10 seed Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova lost to unseeded Solana Searle in three sets Steia.

Australia’s own Ash Barty is expected to win the women’s singles title this year.

Major players who will not play at the 2022 Australian Open include Serena Williams, Dominic Thiem, Roger Federer, Milos Raonic, Kei Nishikori and Stan Wawrinka.
