Alcaraz overpowers Medvedev to reach China Open final

Third-ranked Carlos Alcaraz’s athleticism was again on show as he advanced to the final of the China Open with a 7-5 6-3 victory over Daniil Medvedev.

“I felt great on the court once again, so I’m really happy about it,” Alcaraz said on Tuesday. “I think I couldn’t ask for a better semi-final.”

The four-time grand slam champion, which includes this year’s French Open and Wimbledon titles, extended his head-to-head record against the Russian to 6-2.

Alcaraz will play either top-ranked Jannik Sinner or ******** wild card Bu Yunchaokete in the final.

The 21-year-old Spaniard found his way through a testing first set that had five breaks of serve, but crucially it was Alcaraz’s third service break in the 12th game that secured the set.

With the confidence of a set lead, Alcaraz accelerated and Medvedev had no answers as the Spaniard wrapped up the semifinal in 88 minutes.

Alcaraz has now won eight straight matches across the Davis Cup, Laver Cup and in Beijing since his loss to Botic van de Zandschulp in the second round at the US Open.
