Meanwhile on the ATP Tour, Daniil Medvedev was victorious on home soil, defeating Croatia’s Borna Coric 6-3 6-1 to lift the St Petersburg Open in Russia. It was a third title of 2019 for the world number four and an impressive response in his first event since his epic five-set defeat by Rafael Nadal in the US Open final.
