–
Only four matches on the docket, with the men going more to form than the women, on this first quarterfinal day.
On the women’s side, there’s the No. 7 seed, the No. 19 seed, an unseeded player and a qualifier.
That’s where upsets earlier in the tournament – as exciting as they are when they happen – tend to show. And not necessarily for the better. And, as so often happens, the tennis wasn’t very compelling.
Same with the men, on some level, even if Medvedev and did go the distance.
