(WC) About Wu vs. (2) Danil Medvedev

With the loss of Andrey Rublev against Valentin Royer on Saturday, Medvedev is the highest seed that is left behind at the Hangzhou while offering for his first title since the spring of 2023 in Rome. It would be an ironic development, given that this is the first tournament of the 29-year-old Russian since the splitting of the old coach Gilles Cervara. The 2025 campaign has been a huge disappointment for Medvedev, but at least he played well in his Hangzhou opener by removing Nishesh Basavareddy 6-2, 6-3.

Next to De Wereld No. 18 On Sunday is a quarterfinals against Wu, which follows the head-to-head series 2-0.

Pick: Medvedev in 2

(4) Corentin Moutet vs. Tomas Martin Etcheverry

Moutet and Etcheverry will give up for the third time in their career and for the third time this season. Both previous meetings went the way Etscheverry went; He prevailed 6-3, 7-6 (1) in Rio de Janeiro and 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 in Monte-Carlo.

Although both boys are All-Court players, Clay is definitely a favorable surface for etching in this matchup. The story can be different now that they make a switch to outdoor help jobs. The summer of Moutet contained a second performance in Mallorca and semi-final in Washington, DC, and this week he continued his winning ways with a 6-7 (1), 6-3, 7-6 (3) defeat of fellow French Cazaux on Saturday. Etcheverry did well to beat Damir Dzumhur and Rinky Hijikata, but the competition level becomes more difficult with an in-shape maltet on the other side of the net.
