Tennis player Daniil Medvedev rekindled his chances of advancing to the next stage of the ATP Finals by defeating Alex de Miñaur with a score of 6-2, 6-4 in the tournament that brings together the eight best players of the year, held in Turin, Italy. In this second match, Medvedev did not allow a single break point, showing notable improvement compared to his debut in the tournament, when he lost to Taylor Fritz and had an emotional reaction that included breaking his racket.

De Miñaur, who is participating in this competition for the first time, has suffered two consecutive losses and is almost eliminated. On the other hand, in the other group, Alexander Zverev and Casper Ruud managed to win their respective matches against Andrey Rublev and Carlos Alcaraz.

Medvedev, who was crowned champion in the 2020 edition, will be one of the key figures to watch in this exciting final stretch of the tournament.
